Why don't you do a search for Cuda and find out?
There are dozens of threads on this. Every one would be a better place to re-ask the same question for the umpteenth time.

Hi zarck,

Actually, WCG opted for much broader usable OpenCL so no GPU computing capable card owner would feel excluded. When: later, maybe sooner, but for sure at a time that even non geekitis suffering potential volunteer would need to do a half way IT degree. There might then be a reason for WCG to board the 6.12 client as it has many scheduling fixes for when GPU and CPU crunching are combined.

Meantime, don't hesitate to warm up your CPU(s) at WCG and employ the GPU at other grids.

cheers

PS, recently found an article that mentioned the postulation of some 3-4 decades ago, that if ET would not be discovered by 1990, ''it'' would never be found, and would have taken measures to remained perfectly cloaked from Earthans.

I have no desire to buy an expensive graphics card myself anyway, and the cheap ones from years ago do not even compute.

For $80 what I did was I just bought me yet another whole 3GHz HT computer (hee hee )

If and when I buy graphics hardware it will be for the recently new home-3D, and that will probably not be used for heated computing.

Hmmm... I seem to recall hearing that even SETI doesn't have the funding for it, currently.

Kind of like the Orbit project, I guess. (and personally, I would rather know about meteors with orbits intersecting earth's than someone/something that sent signals our way a million years ago.)

I usually come back to this question: How do you know? Many crunchers have made this claim and I don't think anyone has provided any supported proof, although I may have missed it. Who actually knows that any of the WCG applications will actually run faster on a GPU with equal reliability?

Simple logic dictates this statement is wrong because if GPU is faster than CPU, why are we not using GPU chips in place of CPU chips.? Why would Intel/AMD/IBM/Apple spend mega money to develop faster chips when all they have to do is follow your instructions to substitute GPU chips?

I'm not looking for the WCG or CAs to provide the proof, since they are not making the claim. I'm looking for one or more of the quick-draw, opinionated crunchers with some scientific proof that will allow us to think of them, not as a blow-hard but, as an expert. Show me the Math, but I remind you that you cannot use the words 'points' or 'credits' in your proof, since more points does not equate to faster.
