This has to be the way forward

http://techreport.com/review/26050/nvidia-gef...ell-graphics-processor/12

http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-750-ti/specifications

It will match the performance of my "very efficient when I bought it" GTX560ti

for 1/3 of the power


Then what we need is a new GPU project wink

Re: This has to be the way forward

I second that. All of the stuff with Android is nice but the focus should really be on getting a GPU project back. I know a lot of people left after the end of the last one. I'm sure we would get a lot of them back if we had a new GPU project.

Re: This has to be the way forward

There's a difference playing games and running a BOINC GPU project. Nvidia hasn't shown to be the best running OpenCL.

Re: This has to be the way forward

Maybe if a GPU project comes along it will use Nvidia . I've been thinking about updating my 7770 for upcoming POEM GPU project but the prices are insane. The GTX750ti is at least affordable.

That's what OpenCL is for, so it can use Nvidia, AMD, and Intel.

Re: This has to be the way forward

Just meant that next GPU project might be optimized for Cuda.

Re: This has to be the way forward

Not likely,
projects are steering away from CUDA.
Plus all I have left are HD Radeons :D

Re: This has to be the way forward

I'm sure your right. Just saying the cost of AMD cards is nuts. R9 290x for north of $800.

Re: This has to be the way forward

At Amazon UK it is about $691. Must be the cryptocurrencies craziness.
