#1 WCG goes GPU at last.

Post by Megacruncher »

The other evening I noticed an ATI App running for WCG

Sure enough there's a Beta GPU app being tested :wav:

There's not that much work being dished out but the handful of validated WUs I've had so far have on average given me 50-55 credits for a couple of minutes work. Piss poor by some standards but potentially a game changer for our WCG fortunes.

Keep watching peeps.
