Hi, I think it would be interesting to put very clearly in the forum or better in the main, the minimum information required for hardware GPUGRID to work within the parameters that mark.

If you already are but it seems that almost nobody reads them.

For some time many of the tasks that come to me have been first sent to another partner to have a very outdated hardware and software leaves (for which calls this project) have ended in error or have run out of time (up to five days .)
Order statistics (in either case) of work done and you can see 20 ... 40 tasks failed, for example.

This wastes energy, time and hope this continues, I think they deserve to have the information of whether they really work or not.

I think that would improve the overall performance of this project and the partners who can not participate here will dedicate his efforts in other jobs that contribute their time and energy. Greetings.

There is no single minimum setup. That would depend on CPU, operating system, RAM, HDD, system usage as well as GPU; a very average GPU might work fine on Linux with a high end CPU, RAM, drive and a user that just crunches on the system and who has implemented all the recommended settings. The same GPU on Win7 without using the recommended settings would be slower and the same GPU might not finish on time.

Hence there is an updated Recommended GPU list. These GPU's should all work if the system is on long enough, and reasonably configured.

Hello: According to your comment.

The problem is that most people do not read or do not understand, for the first best would make you very visible on the main page (the FAQ seems to have read little).

It is complicated and labor, but may be worth a shame that those responsible for the web to identify partners with many mistakes, very long time etc ... communicate it directly (if not many).

Personally I have allowed it to one or two cases (no response) I'll try again today and if I can help I will, I hope no offense. Greetings.

Thanks for your concern in this matter.

The thread is only 3 weeks old, but has been read over 900 times. It replaced a thread that had been read over 98000 times, and that in turn replaced another similar thread that was read about 25000 times.

I agree that some users could do with being directly contacted and asked to upgrade their drivers; too many Fermi card with incompatible drivers.
I made some suggestions regarding this in the past.
