Time to push it
I am sure we can start climbing quickly without a lot of effort.
If you can spare even a single core a day it will help out quite a bit.

I know you were one of big supporters of this project and appreciate you stopping by to lend a hand
I have 1 core freeing up from Climate Prediction and if someone can match it I'll crunch it here ... any takers ???
Looks like it supports CUDA (2.3) now too. I'll match that core.

Welcome back Paladin ... thanks for matching the core
On the CUDA front they are still trying to optimize their code.
Currently they still need an entire CPU Core and only partially use the GPU.
If you decide to only crunch your CPU uncheck the Use Nvidia setting in your E@H project preferences.
Looks like it cuts an hour off computation time (on QUAD) allowing it to use 1 CPU + 1 GPU. A shame they haven't figured out how to program more of it into CUDA, but progress is progress.
Oh, and from what I read on their forum, it seems they give extra points for WU in which the GPU was allowed.

It does speed things up a bit and ppd better but my GTX295 kept slipping back into low power 3D as it was only being used about 20%-25%.
They are talking up the next version of their CUDA app being 5-6 times faster than the current app. It will be interesting when it does come out, we might be able to convince a few others to test out a new CUDA project.
p.s. Not going to change the team position post as it is still the same day but we have move up another position!
Fortunately, my GTX275 hasn't been down-clocking (using 195.62 driver) and since it's hardly used I can keep the fan speed low/quiet. On your 295 does it allow two CUDA WUs to run at the same time (i.e. SLI aware & friendly)?

Had lots of problems with the 195.62 (and no I did not clean up properly so likely my own fault) so I rolled back to 191.07. I have SLI off.
IIRC I had my shaders up to 1584 without error for the few Einstein CUDA WUs I crunched.
So I was dusting out my PCs today and decided I would try to stuff the pointy attachment on the vacuum cleaners into the fan of my 295 (yes, it was unplugged) ... worked a champ, my temps are almost silly low. I had not been crunching the GPU for quite some time before I started again recently and have been struggling with temps. At this moment I am working 2 GPUGrid (nice bio project) at this project's max shaders (1512) with fan at 59% (I had them up into the high 80s to low 90 last night) and my temps are sitting pretty at 82c and 84c.
Cool, ill have to check and see how well it does on my 98gx2I've got a quad I can run it on and dedicate it all to here.
Its not overkill if it works.
I added a slow quad on this today. We are currently at rank 392. Lots of teams to pass.

Decided to move what little I had on Yoyo to over here. Nice restart on here Paladin.
The new CUDA 2.3 app released today still uses 1 GPU + 1 CPU for a WU, but on my Q6600 + GTX275 it completes in about 25 minutes. Be interesting to see how many points are given for them.

I have elected to join this team.
BOINC is a bit confusing.
My best gpu, the only gpu I have worth mentioning, is a 4870, I would like to put to work.
How do I do this through the client?
The client is attached to einstein, and I have join the team.
But there is no work actually being done. its just sitting there...

Welcome to the team ... lets get you crunching
Just so we are clear ... you are crunching under the username Chris right?
It looks like you downloaded 4 WUs (work units) and because you have a core 2 duo your machine will work on 2 of them at a time.
Open BOINC Manager and switch to advanced mode if you are not already there (should be a link on the bottom right).
Do the first two tasks listed say "Running" and the next two say "Reeady to Start" ? If so then everything is OK.
At this time you will only be able to use your CPU as this project can only add NVidia cards to the crunching.
If you really want to use both CPU and GPU you could also join the Milkyway prokject and crunch just on your GFX.
Let us know how you are doing and once again,
BatteryOperated It's great to have another cruncher on here.
I was only able to get one of the new CUDA23 WUs. Seems they don't have enough of them to go around yet.
Welcome Chris. One thing to add to Snow's guide is to open BOINC Manager->Advanced->Preferences->Processor_Usage and check-mark Use GPU.
The main projects which use ATI GPUs are Milkyway, Collatz, and GPUGrid.

My account name ; can it be changed from Chris to BatteryOperated? And if yes, can this be accomplished with out losing my progress?
Sure ... go to your "other account info" and change away :-)

Two more cores to throw on. Except when the client is setup, and the cores are at 100%, the client reads only "ready to start." The client has been in this state for over 24 hours....well, what do I do now?
Please copy/paste the first 20 or so lines from your messages tab starting from the last time you rebooted the machine.
@BatteryOperated ... Just checking in ... did you get that straightened out?
