    I too will not touch a Poem box. But perhaps I have a core or two to spare.

    Nice that you are coming because all my GPU tasks are pending.

    I haven't run Einstein is ages. Is there anything I should know. Optimized apps for the gpus perhaps? I have 3 gt 430s running right now my big guns are on Poem and other goals right now. If needed I can bring a my 560ti 2 win into the fray...

    Re: Einstein Challenge

    The most important thing is in computation preferences on BOINC manager change the use of the processors from 100 to 99%.

    Maybe if we had an app to run with Einstein we could run two tasks at the same time using more GPU and have a better use of the CPU also.

    With that the change of the use of the processor wouldn't be needed and maybe we could gain some performance on Einstein.

    Can any of you make one for us, please...

    You don't need an app_info. In the website preferences, change the GPU Utilization Factor from 1 (default) to 0.5. That's it.

    I'm running 2 each on all my ati gpus, which are all ending up in pending. I think nv cards are faster, but all mine are staying on Poem.
