So my motherboard is a P5G31/DP MB so has a Double Precision CPU. And work better with a double precision GPU. Is that right or nothing to do with that ... This little things don't seem important but usually they are or are not?

Hi Duke, I know this stuff can get crazy in a hurry if you're not a tech nut like some of us!
The motherboard and CPU don't matter so much in this scenario, but you are correct, your CPU could crunch any project. As long as you have a pci-e slot on your motherboard, you can attach any current GPU to it, either a dual precision capable GPU, or a less expensive single precision GPU.
This dual and single precision talk is just for certain projects that utilize it. A more expensive GPU will have the ability to do dual precision math, because it is engineered for greater computational capability.
OK DrPop, I just wanted to understand but I think I did. Linux makes us have to understand things better. The problem is that I have only one PCI-E and 2 GPUs.
Thanks for your help my good friend.

Whatever you do, don't look that up on Urban Dictionary!
OMG I didnt need to know how my video card enjoyed its crunching....
DNETC no longer exists and probably should be removed from the list. DrugDiscovery@Home doesn't seem to be handing out work anymore either. And SETI beta hasn't given out ATI work in well over a year now, but ill ask RomW if there are any plans on restarting that.
