No, but it has a pair of PCIe x16 slots (and is consequently currently housing a HD7930 and HD7850)

I can send you a crappy PCIe x16 card if you want to cut it up so it'll fit in an x4 slot.

Thanks, but I have a couple cards I could try that with. In the meantime, I'm trying something different that has support built-in...

I just checked the box: "If my computer can process work on my graphics card" on WCG website and appeared almost 50 HCC to do .

It's Crunch time.

You can do 5-600 a day on your 7770 if you set it to do 3 at the time. You have a dual core right, so 3 might be your limit but try 4 once your points has settled. Look for the multiple GPU thread and ask if it gives you problems.

So on the first option (how many work units I want run...) is 5 since is dual core CPU and usually 1 thread is to help GPU and the other 3 WU is for GPU?

EDIT: I used m&m's Auto Setup.

So what did you tell it to do? Ideally, you'll be running no CPU work and three or four on the GPU (but assisted by the CPU)

Yeah, that's all I can do. when the POST screen comes up it stays there for a bit then straight to BIOS. I have no options, BIOS or nothing

Gotta check it when I have a chance.

Looks good, psu is overkill for one card and no plan to sli/crossfire. If you want to crunch go with a 7950 instead of the 660ti (not just saying this cause I have one, they are much better at crunching). Probably could go cheaper on the ram but its not a bad price really.

Well guys, Hello! I am in school again, since Jan 14th. I am studying welding, with my eye on the diploma, instead of a certificate. The VA is paying for my first year and the classes for Diploma are two years. So, looks like I will be appling for some grants and loans, this fall.

I have been very busy with school in the morning and work at night. I work Sat thru Thu and have classes Mon thru Fri.

I have computer access here at school, between classes but, no machines to crunch with. I was hoping for some good news from the VA about housing vouchers but, nothing yet. So, my crunching days are somewhere in the future with no definate time frame.

Oh well, I hope you all are doing well. I am doing well considering I can't sleep enough to feel 100% all the time. Sundays are normally a good day, work doesn't start until 9 and we close at 5. So, I can sleep in a bit and go back to the mission and sleep some more, after work. I have to take off now, I have a math class in a few minutes.

TAKE CARE!!

good to hear from you Arjai, and GL with the welding, there's always metal that needs to be stuck together somewhere.

You can see your points by going to the "Projects" tab in BOINC Manager or by going to BOINCStats.com or Free-DC

You can abort tasks, but it's preferred that you not. How is your setup running now? If you've devoted the entire CPU to feeding the GPU, then you probably do want to abort the CPU tasks.

Until now I did 3130 points... not bad I guess.
I still can't run multiple WU with GPU and running tasks with CPU are very slow.

CPU tasks are much lower, unfortunately. If you're only running one GPU WU, it's best to let the other core of your CPU continue to process the other tasks. But we can get you set up with multiple GPU WUs

So I got my internet bill yseterday and almost hurled. Normally I pay $80 per month for 60 GB of data (@ 8 mb/s down and 768 kb/s up), but my bill was over to $200.00 for January
I called the provider today and they stated that I used 116.5 GB Download and 57 GB Upload. The guy (he was cool) stated that I had an outdated plan and that I could (should) upgrade to a newer one. So I signed-up for the 150 GB (@ 18 mb/s down and 1.5 mb/s up) and they took off the additional charge from last month
I was curious on what my usage was going to be like with all this downloading and uploading. It didn't help that I re-installed about 5 or 6 STEAM games so I could back them up
Last night I was thinking I was going to have to reduce my GPU's, but now I don't have to worry about it.

In the lower48 just about any cable provider would have stuck you with at least 50% of the overage Well sometimes you can get lucky, but more often than not they are all just out for the $$.

Its funny that you get faster internet in AK than I do less than 1hr outside the capital in California.
