    Nice! Nothing like a good ole SETI.USA rivalry. I'm running in "crippled mode" but let's see what I can put up.
    @Beer and Sping - you guys in too?

    How's the credit for nvidia vs amd? It's been a while since I crunched at Collatz.

    Sticking my foot in the water to test. Going to run collatz on my nvidia card to see what I get. Time to chase some MM's instead of maximizing my credit anyways.

    Slicker can give us the real answer, but last time I checked, ATI/AMD was better credit. It's been a while since I tried an Nvidia card on Collatz though.
    It's actually decent credit on NVIDIA, just not what PG was giving, so we all crunched that. However, now that PG dropped its credit, and DiRT seems to have issues half the time, Collatz just might be one of the better bets for both GPUs now. I'm sure some of the guys can give us some comments as well.

    Here is what I'm getting on 2 cards:


    Code:
    Run time   CPU time       Credit        Application
    
    1,398.44   1,396.29       3,055.05	collatz v2.09 (ati13ati)  AMD 6970
    2,248.85   357.18         3,125.08	collatz v2.03 (cuda23)  GTX 590
    Last edited by spingadus; 10-28-11 at 11:02 PM. Reason: swapped the amd and gtx labels. Obviously ati13ati goes with amd and cuda23 goes with the 590

    OK, so someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the GTX 590 should be at least double the HD 6970, and it's not (credit / sec) so that means it still slightly (maybe 30% or so?) favors ATI/AMD GPUs for credit...

    I think the real question is, how does that credit / sec compare to what your GTX 590 can do on PG or DiRT?

    The HD 6970 could certainly do much better on Moo! if you also dedicate 1 CPU core along with that. But, with DNETC gone, of course that's not the point - the point was to crunch a little Collatz and support Slicker.
