CUDA 3.1 beta is available to developers. So shortly after the 3.0, maybe they have sorted some of the inefficiency of the 3.0 version. We have not tried it yet. gdf |

maybe they have sorted some of the inefficiency of the 3.0 version. More likely they want developers to bug test it for them, before they release their Fermi based Teslas. You can see the updates they made here. See anything tasty? Testing for them would be fine if they gave you a box of toys. It wont be available to the general public (GTX470 and GTX480) users until next month, so no rush. |

Performance for a reference molecular system (DHFR): In the latest code and with cuda3.1beta we reached: GTX480 4.9 ms/step (cuda3.1beta) gdf |

Was that 11% improvement soley a result of using CUDA 3.1? - was it the same code used to get 5.45 on CUDA 3.0? |

Yes, just cuda3.1. gdf |

So compared to your cuda3.0 benchmark of 5.9ms for the 480 GTX, this new cuda3.1beta gives an entire 1s improvement at 4.9ms. That is a significant improvement! |

It's a "1 ms per step" improvement, not 1 s ;) MrS Scanning for our furry friends since Jan 2002 |

I created a dual boot with XP Pro and I installed boinc and the nvidia drivers. The only work units that I'm downloading are the v6.03 and they immediately error out. When I use Win 7 with my 480s, I only receive the v6.73 work units and those complete just fine. What must I do with XP to get the v6.73 work units? Thank you in advance. |

In your account go to GPUGRID preferences and uncheck ACEMD ver 2 Radio Caroline, the world's most famous offshore pirate radio station. Great music since April 1964.

Your Windows XP and Windows 7 installations will have different HostIDs. Perhaps they've been set to different venues? |

Richard, what specifically do you mean by different venues? I did uncheck ACEMDv2 and will report back tonight once I get home and switch over to XP. I appreciate all the help. |

Is there any news about crunching with Fermi cards and Linux ? |

Is there any news about crunching with Fermi cards and Linux ? My 470s have been happily crunching beta units for several days now. |

@Danger ... To check to see which Location your PC is using (this is what Richard was referring to as venue)... GPUGrid Computers on this account http://www.gpugrid.net/hosts_user.php the third column should be named "Location" then go to GPUGrid preferences http://www.gpugrid.net/prefs.php?subset=project to check your settings for the "Location" you set your WinXP instance to.
