Re: GPU or SMP for the new client?

I did not see an option to select 3 in the Client Control, the drop down box under configuration only lets you select an even number, but I am running it with 2 right now to see if that changes anything.

And I also set the priority to low for SMP, so hopefully that will help also.

Re: GPU or SMP for the new client?

A big problem is that before v7 I never really had a steady stable setup, so I'm limited in comparison. As far as tpf, my gpu instance in v7 is averaging 1m50s and my smp is doing 1h20m tpf. The smp is definitely running slower than it did in v6.x I'm not sure if it's the wu but it's giving me a 4 d...

Re: GPU or SMP for the new client?

Now that I've updated to v7 and set it up for gpu and added smp I am down to 341 ppd on my smp but the gpu is chugging along like a champ, finishing in less than 3 hours per wu. Are the 2 incompatible? For my ...

Re: GPU or SMP for the new client?

Ok, thanks for all the great info! I am actually running GPU3 with Uniprocessor on my older PC(the dual core) just because everything I was reading stated it was better than SMP for anything less than a quad core. Maybe I will upgrade to vers7 soon just for ease, but it is not a priority. Thanks aga...

Re: GPU or SMP for the new client?

Ok great, did not know that, so now I don't need the seperate SMP client! I configured my SMP to the specs that PantherX used in his SMP setup tutorial, so hopefully we shall see where it takes me! Also, on my older rig with an nvidia 8800 and a dual core I am running seperate GPU3/Uni setups, would...

GPU or SMP for the new client?

Hi there! I am a little new to the details of this and everything was moving very slowly for me, but it all seemed confusing as to installations and GPU and SMP clients. I also didn't understand the tags, etc. I have installed the new beta v7 F@H client and it is working great, but suring setup it a...
