There is the ASUS M4A88T-M motherboard that has an integrated AMD-class HD 4250 graphics. In Ubuntu_v11.10, my BOINC_v6.12.33 reports "No usable GPUs found" using the motherboard. My bet is that the Intel camp's graphics capability in any form (CPU-integrated, motherboard-integrated, or discreet) will be blown out of the water by AMD-class graphics capability in any form (CPU-integrated, motheboard-integrated, or discreet). But all that remains to be seen... Hint, hint, WCG staff... are we in line with the GPU plans so far? The troops are itching for some action on the WCG GPU-computing battlefront. ;-)

Is there any idea when testing is going to commence?

And I do still have to manually restart BOINC every time I reboot...  |

Well, I thought we were on the final push, so I brought some hardware online that isn't sustainable for me in the long term. Since there's no way of us knowing how long this will be I'll have to back off a little.
----------------------------------------No hard feelings, I know that's just how things are with releasing new clients etc. I'm still up for whatever Beta work I can grab when it comes.  Currently being moderated under false pretences |

I'll try to wrap my head around the ideas discussed there for now and we'll see if, later, those ideas would wrap around my head -- snip from kateiacy [Jan 22, 2012 11:01:31 PM] post .; |

hmmm... interesting stuff here!! :)
I'm looking forward GPU-Apps for WCG for quite some time. Collatz is nice points-digging but not that useful than WCG :) This might be another good reason to upgrade my card during this year... depending on what gen' and driver are supported :) I hope not to miss the beta ones ;) Btw, I'll hit my 30yr runtime at the next update :) Total Run Time (y:d:h:m:s) 29:359:07:19:35 *like* :) |
