The 295ers are running at stock (-> 1242000KHz) and need about the same time... When overclocked the times will get better... ;) Ratm I'm very pleased with these cards: they're running cool and are very fast; I'd buy them again... ID: 5639 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Last modified: 15 Jan 2009, 15:04:28 UTC I´m interested in power consumption also, my 9800GX2-computer draws 260 watts when crunching two WUs and 75% CPU on other BOINC-projects, taskman shows ~90% load (Q6700@stock/1,2V, P43, 1x HDD, no DVD-ROM, 550watt PSU, 18146). No statistics yet on this computer, I changed different GTX 260-cards from board to board, dont be confused. ID: 5644 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Last modified: 23 Feb 2009, 14:33:12 UTC I personally didn't have to extend the desktop to get it to work. As to how that's an interesting question. I did a totally new install of Vista 32 installed 181.22 from my eVGA driver CD, not the downloaded ones, and it worked straight away. Also remember the protected check-box on the install of BOINC (using 6.4.5). Unlike the hours I spent on the 64-bit version to no avail. ID: 6935 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
