Depends on your application selection.

If you set the FGRP GPU utilization factor to -1, you may still get work for BRP5 and / or BRP4G.

There are 2 utilization factors, only change the one for FGRP apps and you should still be able to do BRP4G and BRP5 tasks if I interpret Bernd correctly.


Ah, I see and give it a try.

It works! Thanks.

It's still far cleaner of a hack than mine was - modified and recompiled BOINC to not report it is Nvidia-OpenCL capable.

Is the project giving priority to the FGRP3 search?

I see on SSP that 90% of the project processing capabilities are going to this search.

Not intentionally. This is a side effect of the ongoing trouble with the other CPU-based search, the GW search. This is running at rather minimum rate now, to avoid overloading the our download mirrors. We're working on it.

2014-03-29 13:33:40.8489 [PID=11587] [version] OpenCL GPU RAM required min: 1073741824.000000, supplied: 1073283072

It seems to me that the GPUram requirements have been lowered from 2GB to 1GB.

But i'm still short for a tiny bit

Indeed. That already increased the number of cards that have problems executing the units, so we will not lower it further atm.
