AK V8 + CUDA MB team work mod

That was it, silly me :) Thanks a lot, now my PC is slughish too ;D
Wold be nice that those tickets will be solved quickly, especially the one about suspending only the CUDA at will...

I don't think its card memory. My 8500 has 512MB. Its GPU scheduling or something and reading thru prior posts on this thread it seems some of the experts and code wizards are working on it.

is passable AK V8 + CUDA MB team work with 2 or 3 GPU at same time ?

I tried your moded app in your previous post, and I thought that the problem was solved as I don't think I made it past 24 hours without my GPU going idle. I applied the app last night and this morning my GPU temp was high telling me that it was being used. When I got home today I noticed that the temp was back to normal indicating that nothing was being used.
So after reading your post about Vista (I'm using the 64bit version) which app do I change the affinty for? I'm not sure which one is used soley for the GPU. I have 4 processes running. (I only have a dual core)
AK_v8b_win_SSSE3x_GPU_CPU_team.exe is running at 3 instances 2 of them running around 22% and the 3rd one running at 00 CPU usage. The MB_6.08_mod_CPU_team_CUDA.exe file is running at 50% CPU. Which process would I change as all for of them have both CPU's checked off for the affinity.
Thanks

for BOINC only you should not change affinity. Only if some non- BOINC CPU consuming task working....
GPU temp will fall dow time to time - when it starts new task. It's notmal.
It's not normal only if this fall takes more than ~min

Well, attached app little more "smart" in this sense and will leave worker thread on single (first) core. It could give some performance degradation indeed in general case (it can't fill idle window of another core) but it really helped in my situation. And achieved GPU temp is highest (the same was when no non-BOINC app runs).

OK, I have read almost all the thread, I have DL the SSE3 package (I have a Core2Duo) and this version of CUDA app. Mt task manager now shows one AK_V8 app at 50%, one AK_V8 at 00% and one MB_9.08 CUDA at 2%.
In Boinc manager I have 2 working units, one normal and another one that doesn't increase the CPU time field (but it is working).
Is this normal? I did make an config file with 3 CPU's and placed it on the work folder.
The CUDA app will run at 50% just for a while at the begining...
PC is very responsive.

For core2 duo you should use SSSE3 version - it will faster. Moreover you probably forgot about cc_config.xml file. Ont core still idle in your config
