Thread hijacking is considered rude. Let's keep this one on topic which is a list of what people (who are interested) will bring to WCG if and when it happens.

And most $200 GPUs would run rings around a i7-2600K. Using how many watts of power and producing how much heat? Why are we even having this discussion? Until WCG offers GPU support it's an exercise in futility. @nanoprobe Have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_AT...ands_.28HD_7xxx.29_series The first card, 7570 should sell for under 100$, and has a TDP almost half of i7-2600K. Related to the processing power, I will let you have the pleasure of finding out. ---------------------------------------- [Edit 1 times, last edit by cristipurdel at Oct 3, 2011 10:47:33 AM] |

With all the GPU talk going on, I was wondering what kind of GPU's people would bring to the table. Currently, I have the following and will add more or upgrade to better as I can afford. In my farm: Radeon 4350 512MB nVidia 8400GS 1GB nVidia 8400 128MB (X2) nVidia 210 512MB (X2) nVidia 8400GS 512MB Borged systems: Radeon HD 2300 integrated 256MB (X3) nVidia 8400GS integrated 128MB nVidia GT 430 1GB nVidia 210 1GB Edit: updated for systems that were upgraded I offer this: CAL AMD Radeon HD 6x00 series (Turks) (1024MB) driver: 1.4.1385. Not being a technical wiz, I'm not sure how good it is ...or how it compares with some of the impressive looking hardware some folks have. John    crunching, crunching, crunching. AMD Ryzen 5 2600 6-core Processor with Windows 11 64 Pro.

Related to the processing power, I will let you have the pleasure of finding out. Interesting but since non of my current mobos support PCI-E 3.0 that would just add more to the start up costs. I understand they are suppose to be backward compatible but I wonder how much performance would be lost. I will continue to wait and see since non of this matters until WCG supports GPU computing.

Re PCIE3: Top GPU's will see some benefit, but the older they are the less benefit there is to be had; many present cards would not benefit one iota from PCIE3, and the lesser 7000 cards might experience a negligible influence over PCIE2. Clearly PCIE3 is needed for the Top GPU's, or it would not even exist, but for lesser cards the significance wanes.
