Thought it was the 2nd GPU that failes (gts 450) . Now i thought i the app that crashed and there was no overclocking at that moment. Windows 7 64 Bit . Nvidia 280.26 (33?) Think that could help to improve the app. ID: 22132 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I'm not a hardened cruncher but GPUGRID seems to be a good second project to run along side Docking. To me the GTX460 seems to be a good value for money card with reasonable output.

Hi Rantanplan, the error you had was after 35sec on a bad task; the same task failed on other GPU's as well. TheFiend, while the GTX460 is a reasonable GPU, the higher end CC2.0 GPU's are better value (for crunching here) overall. That said, adding a GTS450 to a system with an average PSU might well be your best option; the GTS450 requires one 6pin power connector. ID: 22147 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Docking is my main project, GPUGRID is just a side project, and I have only just started GPU crunching after cutting down on the number of crunchers I run. Value wise, for me, a GTX460 fits the bill perfectly - the proceeds of selling a CPU/mobo/RAM bundle will pay for it. ID: 22151 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

And I know it's not a brilliant card for GPUGRID but it suits my requirements better. ID: 22192 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

This card works well with ACEMD standard WU My ASUS GTX 460 runs "ACEMD for long runs" exclusively, 24/7, and they complete anywhere between 10.5 and 16.5 hours, giving me the 50% bonus every time.
