Is anybody developing SETI opp app for CAL (ATI GPU)??

[Raistmer]

beta opened already:

can't wait for single precision

can't wait for single precision

I wanna few success validations at least.
Situation complicated by no work from Berkeley servers for some alpha testers hosts.
It's impossible to test app online if there is no work for it

i have a 2600 xt waiting on the sideline to run a cal app.

Raistmer Meet zpm from Seti Beta.

tomorrow I think there will be app for 2600 too 
@zpm
one more post and you will eligible for beta area

Any idea what kind of performance we can expect from a 3850?

Approx the same as for any other ATI GPU, capable to run brook.
~25% increase over last opt AP release [measured on Q9450/HD4870 combo. For slower CPU you will see bigger speedup and reverse]
Only part of algorithm ported to GPU (hence "hybrid" build) and ported part is heavely memory-bound so sometimes 2600 performs better than my HD4870.
Exact speedup should reveal beta testing.

boom!...

one more post, oh wait this is another post.. lol! in.

The topic or board you are looking for appears to be either missing or off limits to you.

I cannot enter....

[Mattia]

If you need, I have an Ati 4850 under linux for the beta testing... but I'm not able to enter beta section.

[Raistmer]

No linux port exist for now, maybe in future...

Version for single / multi-GPU, w/o double precision support posted in beta area

System memory bound or video memory bound? 

[Raistmer]

GPU part GPU memory bound and CPU part - system memory (especially on P4 where L2 not enough to hold many of used arrays...)
AP likes big L2 cache, all builds including pure CPU one.
