1) Message boards : Number crunching : New Benchmark Thread - times wanted for any hardware, CPU or GPU, old or new! (Message 63387) Posted 16 Apr 2015 by TLS Post: No, thank you for the initiative. Its very interesting reading. May I suggest that you update the table in the first post of this thread. I belive it will be easier for you and then also easy for others to find the last update.

3) Message boards : Number crunching : What WU`s is to prefer for the MW project? (Message 63111) Posted 6 Feb 2015 by TLS Post: I did like you told me. At first it didnt work, so I gave it up. But right before I left work I discovered that the settings kicked in. I hope I will find it like that on monday morning as well. I also crunch with CPU on my home PC. Im sure its not that big of a loss to only use 50 % on a 4 core CPU. Some day I will buy a GFX to this PC too, but unfortunately I dont have so much money to spend on hardware today. I am very fond of and interested in the science around black matter so its a lot of fun to contribute. Thanks for reply and interest mikey. You have helped a lot.

4) Message boards : Number crunching : What WU`s is to prefer for the MW project? (Message 63106) Posted 6 Feb 2015 by TLS Post: Thank you, sir. I`ll continue crunching. Since last time I have taken my GFX card from my home PC to PC that crunches at work, AMD HD4830. So it can work 24/7. Sad thing is, it runs on 50 % and takes about twice as long time to crunch a WU than on my home PC. Seems like AMD x2 4600 is way to weak to feed the card. I suspended the WU`s that runs on CPU, that helped and GFX worked on 97 %. But then the finished WU`s didnt report back. I guess you are familiar whit that issue. Well well, I wont complain and just keep it going. But if any have a good advice I will be grateful. TLS

5) Message boards : Number crunching : What WU`s is to prefer for the MW project? (Message 63073) Posted 25 Jan 2015 by TLS Post: I see. After a few months off i let my old PC crunching again. Its at my office at work so its not in the way at home. It only have a AMD x2 4600 CPU and a 7800 GTX which dosent crunch. It gives around 550 in avarage credit, far from the modern crunching station most of the active members hass. Is there any point of using it? Also i let my "newer" PC from 2009 crunch at home. But its just a few hours a day when its not in use. At night i must switch it of.

Is it n-body or any other? Or does it not make any difference? Im not talking about WUs for the members but for the projects result.

8) Message boards : Cafe MilkyWay : Why wont any projects run on GPU ? (Message 57627) Posted 23 Mar 2013 by TLS Post: Thanks for your reply. I reinstalled the latest driver. I know from earlier that someting is wrong whit it (for my PC at least). After everything is installed and I restart PC i get an error message that says "KBDSync.exe has failed" or someting like that. I know for sure that it has something to do whit the driver. Im sorry, but I dont know what you mean whit "Boinc Manager, down by the clock". [/img]

9) Message boards : Cafe MilkyWay : Why wont any projects run on GPU ? (Message 57622) Posted 23 Mar 2013 by TLS Post: I think iv tried everything. I have the last driver. In options iv set GPU to always run, and run even when the PC is in use. As I understand the GPU will perform a lot better than the CPU so I feel its waste of resources only running projects on CPU. Anybody know what I should do? I run W7 x64 whit a HD4830. Thanks in advance.
