Anyone checked if new OpenCL driver (10.0.1526.3) is better than what was in 14.4 (RC1?) (10.0.1445.5)?

I currently use 14.4 and was thinking if switching to 14.6 for my R9 280X would prove useful...

Hello,

Gigabyte R9 280X Radeon Core 1100MHz Ram 950MHz.

Avarage easily calculated.
Sometimes 23s...

I might even try to reach 1.15GHz or 1.2GHz...

I'd say that text-based explanation would be more helpful... like in video description that is possible for youtube videos?

Then I would suggest setting:
Max tasks per day
to 100 at the beginning (or when it's reset due to being >100 & validate error).

Right now I can see PCs wasting over 10 000 tasks...

Hello,

Are there any news on science part of the project.
Web page:
http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/information.php

Is heavily outdated. I personally would like to know if my involvement is of any use. You should understand that getting 600k+ credits per day costs some money, and some volunteers, like myself need such incentive.

What does those new runs check/simulate?
What is the difference between MilkyWay@Home/Separation/N-Body simulation tasks? (I was able to find some info about N-Body and Separation tasks. I still have no idea what pure MilkyWay@Home application is doing...)

Works for me:
http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=745376351
for MilkyWay@Home tasks.
Does not work for Separation (Modified Fit):
http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=745154872

So probably just missing statement that it only works for MilkyWay@Home, or indeed a problem in coding :)

Hello,

Please look at this computer:
http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/results.php?hostid=573990&offset=0&show_names=0&state=6&appid=

Shouldn't he be "banned" for mass abort? Or at least banned from receiving GPU tasks?
