Forum > GPU crunching

Any inside(r) infos about crunching with ATI cards ?

<< < (2/3) > >>

arkayn:
I have a feeling that once Milkyway gets the GPU side running, ATI will blow Nvidia out of the water.

popandbob:
ATI has gone to single precision for CUDA which will be a real advantage. In single precision mode both nvidia and ati are theoretically equal. This also means that once the ATI is switched to single precision we will see some crazy number crunching as both cards offer much higher flops in single precision.

Yes, I'm also waiting to see what Gipsel/Cluster Physik is able to make from Travis's code revision.

However, remember that Travis's reported times for his Cuda app was on a 9600M that has only 32 shaders & relatively slow 1075-1200Mhz speed.
Would be interesting to see an apples to apples w/ @ 4850 vs GTX 285 for example.  Both cards are @ 1 Tflop performance.

My 4830 does pretty good on MW, when it can get work.

which driver do they use in the milkyway ap now?
have latest Catalyst 9.4 for Vista64 from ATI, did not work on milkyway
did they alredy solved  the problem to run BOINC as a service ?
