1) Message boards : News : ATI application (v0.57) should be available now (Message 47472) Posted 10 Apr 2011 by Vince Post: Cat 11.3, Win7-64, 3xHD5850, intel 970 4.00 GHz (water cooled) All 0.57 validating ok The cpu ussage issue is a right bitch and i have tried reserving cores for the GPU and limiting CPU apps to 8 instead of 12 threads but no joy The Gpu's are only utizing 65% - 75% per unit and dopping my rac to barely 1,000,000 / day With a power bill in excess of $200/week i can't justify this performance I'm afraid that i can't continue with milkyway so i'll be moving all 8 GPU's to collatz to spare my cpu's till Travis and the guys do something about this issue
