I finally had been able to run some WU.
I had this results

https://www.gpugrid.net/results.php?hostid=178531

are in line with the expected performance of such system, or I have to change some settings?

BTW GPU-Z does not show me any load of the GPU, is this normal?

Thank you all guys,

I was thinking something like that.
The only problem I see is upgrading the BOINC client, since the version 7 seems difficult to run under CentOS (at least it was last year...)
Once upgraded it, I can also try to upgrade drivers and CUDA easily.

Do you have any link suggestion for the BOINC client (possibly a fast and easy one ;-) ) ?


I Nikke,
I solved a similar problem (on kUbuntu 14.04) installing manually the latest Nvidia driver.
Do do so I followed step by step the tutorial that some posted on this thread:

http://www.gpugrid.net/forum_thread.php?id=3713&nowrap=true#36671

to install the latest boinc server and client I use a custom PPA, that on my system works without any problem

Hope it could help and works also on your OS
