Poem@home is going to make available their source openCl GPU code
would be interesting to understand if could be used also in A@H projects

The GPU accelerated algorithm will be open-sourced so that other groups can use the efficient forcefield freely to conduct research on GPU clusters on their own (the timeframe for this will be until Christmas. The code is ready to be shipped and the paper is written, but needs to be peer-reviewed before).

I am using my old ATI 280 on Milkyway@Home, at the moment.
Milkyway@Home is a DP OpenCl project (as A@H).

My old ATI 280 (bought for 98€) is still faster than any Nvidia card on that project. (10 time faster than a GTX760!)

Because less computational time means less power used, I think that would be important to develop A@H also for ATI card, if you think that the carbon footprint of your project is as important as your results.

best regards

Greetings

Glad to hear you are making good progress with the GPU app.

As I have an AMD HD 5850, I will have to patiently wait till there is an OpenCL app available.

What that will mean for me, is that I will be able to crunch Asteroids on GPU and crunch one of my other favourite CPU projects on the CPU.

Until, happy crunching.

Regards
Tazzduke


I'm waiting too, until it will be released I'll put all my Ati GPUs on POEM, that did a fantastic job with the new OpenCl app (made with the support of a community member)

any news about openCL and ATI card support?

did anyone request some support to AMD for OpenCL programming?
They could be interested in supporting your project because could be a great way to sell a good number of high end card to boinc user.
