Re: Einstein: Einstein@Home GPU Application for ATI/AMD Graphics Cards
Can I ask if anyone has seen a thermal difference between this and PG gpu work? I love the return on the pps gpu work, but my lappy will reach thermal even when the lappy cooler is on full tilt and both are a foot off the desk.

Poem may be another alternative. With their newest version, after 10 minutes of running, the GPU was still at 0% utilization and running very cool. Then again, I'm not sure the WU would ever finish in my lifetime. However, prior to this version, the previous version still ran very cool because it was doing half the work on the CPU. From the looks of it, they now do ALL the work on the CPU making the GPU run very cool.;)

Another one for you...
This laptop has AMD Radeon HD 6320 graphics but still gives this error:

Here is the computer configuration:

Re: Einstein: Einstein@Home GPU Application for ATI/AMD Graphics Cards
Remember, einstein apps take lots of VRAM. "per GB of VRAM you should be able to execute at least 2, possibly 3 instances." That works out to less than 500mb per task for sure. *Maybe* less than 333mb per task. So if you have 256mb, you are out. 512mb, and you can run one per.
You have 384mb, so that makes it borderline.

:D Finnally I could download some GPU tasks. The use of the GPU is quite funny and goes like a stairway. 10%, 25%, 70% and 100%. Is always jumping returns to zero. Well is this normal for Einstein or is my computer GPU having problems to do Einsten. :confused:
Re: Einstein: Einstein@Home GPU Application for ATI/AMD Graphics Cards
That means your GPU task is CPU-starved. Change Tools -> computing preferences -> use at most -> 99%.

:D Nice what a litlle number can do. :-B Thanks Z. :-bd
Geez I don't know how to take this attached image. Sorry
Re: Einstein: Einstein@Home GPU Application for ATI/AMD Graphics Cards
I was looking for one app to Einstein and I could find one for cuda but I can not use it with the HD5770. Someone knows about one to use with ATI that could work fine? :p
