Just read on Slashdot (http://slashdot.org) about some new software that allows you to run programs on your GPU. Would be great for DC projects like F@H and Seti.

This could be very well implemented if you had several old PCI cards.
I'll be following this, thanks for the info.

several PCI cards???? Do you even have several PCI slots?


And with GPU's up to 256Bit or 512Bit.... should make a boost in performance :P

i dont think that graphics cards are very good for that kind fo operation. and also, for dedicated machines, i think there are better ways to spend your money.

i wonder how long itll be till they release fah with that new software anyway? maybe boinc will ahve it.

I read that and started a thread too, but I don't think anyone reads the programming section :p

I wanna try this, but my programming knowledge is limited.
