GTS 450

(1/3) > >>

Frizz:
I just got a GTS 450 (MSI Cyclone) to do some testing and wanted to share some benchmark results with you.

Summarized: It's nothing world-shattering. My GT 240 crunches one typical WU in about 20 minutes, my GTX 460 needs 11 minutes. The GTS 450 needs 16 minutes. Power consumption while crunching: ~70 watt (only for the GTS 450).

But the MSI GPU cooler is awesome - even under load it's never over 35°C.

[EDIT] Added results of GT 240 benchmark for comparison plus WUs.

Ghost0210:
Have you got any comparisons with other cards and these wu's?
Depending on price it may not be a bad entry level fermi card

arkayn:
Looks like I will be able to see some decent SETI speeds about Monday, that should be when my GTX 460 arrives.

Pepi:
Sorry if this was discussed before, but I didn't wont to open another thread for GTS 450.
 If I test it with cuda 2.3 GTS 450 throws invalid results, so it looks like she is not backward compability, or that is only temporary?
Thanks for any answer.
I have same card as member that open this thread.

Jason G:
Hi Pepi.  Cuda 2.3 has no support for Fermi architecture.  Only Cuda 3.0 onwards.

Your choices are stock 610 or x32f from the latest installer 0.37 .  x32f is better than stock (less errors & a tad faster)
