SSE4+ CPU/GPU app?

Jason00:
Ok cool, thanks for the info. Guess I'll continue doing what I do best then. Just download all the great stuff you guys create and crunch away!!!

***I"m using the "Raistmer's_opt_pack_V10a_x64_SSE3_Intel_MB_CPU_GPU_team" package at the moment.****

SUre not :)
"team" mod called mod because it used MODIFIED AK_v8 files BTW ;D
There is no SSE4.1 team build available.
But you still can test SSE4.1 AK_v8 in standalone runs (but not as member of GPU/CPU team).

Since I wanted to use the SSE4.1 build with the V10a CPU/GPU combo, I just renamed the app in the app_info.xml file. BUT, all I got was now ten versions of Win64_AK_v8_SSE4.1 app running. Instead of 10 cpu apps and the two gpu cuda apps.

It seems you learned what "mod" means by experiment - the best way to learn indeed ;D

Jason00:
If you guys don't have an I7 processor to test with, I'd be a willing volunteer! Just let me know.

Here's my setup.

MB – Asus Rampage 2 Extreme
CPU – Intel Core i7 920 CPU @  w/Apogee GTZ WB
MB – Asus Rampage II Extreme Bios Ver. 1104
RAM – OCZ Platinum 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666)
VGA – SLI – EVGA GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 896MB 448-bit GDDR3 w/D-Tek FuZion GFX 2 & UNI-Sink Heatskink
PSU – Corsair HX1000 Power Supply
HDD – Raid 0 – Western Digital Cavier Black 500GB 7,200 32MB
WATER COOLING – x2 MRC320 Radiators, Swiftech MCP655 Pump, 8 Scythe SY1225SL12SH 120mm "Slipstream" Fans
OTHERS – 1 WD Black 1TB HD, 2 DVD Burners, & 1 Flash card reader

Cheers!... It's really more of a case of having an i7 to build with though, and Intel pulling their collective fingers out for  us "Green Belt Intel Software Development Partners" to place more than one geriatric nerd on the SDK help desk, and put more than marketing diatribe in there. ("I7 is faster".. yeah that's helpful)

Sorry, attended a webinar last week, and figure most of the software development tm is contracted to Russia and China.  So we could be waiting some time for updates to the "optimisation reference manual" for starters.
