A bad news for all ATI owners : GPU3: no support for ATI in the 1st version

A bad news for all ATI owners : GPU3: no support for ATI in the 1st version

Versus: http://folding.typepad.com/news/2010/01 ... pencl.html

Sigh, the *OpenMM OpenCL port is not fully functional*, the AMD implementation is fully functional and many other software packages and projects are already using it. For example, we showed a bunch of computational chemistry/bio/physics apps running on AMD's implementation (both CPU and GPU) at Supercomputing. You can also see around these forums that our OpenCL implementation is pretty good, although not without bugs.

Vijay was not sufficiently clear in that post. GPU3 is running CUDA on Nvidia, not OpenCL. The OpenCL port is not working completely anywhere (although I just fixed a bug preventing both Nvidia's and AMD's latest implementations from working at all...) and the base port was just completed at the end of last year. Now it is entering testing and tuning.

And, Brook runs just fine still, but it is no longer in active development by AMD, it has transitioned back to a fully opensource project as we said we would do.

I've updated the news to reflect last informations posted by Vijay and Mike.

By the way, it's true that first release of GPU3 won't run on ATI ... but that's only apply to first release and we don't know how long this situation will persist.

I didn't see the information Mike posted and I'd like to read the original source without translations.

Well this made me significantly sad.
I'm waiting for ATi client to make a comeback before I do.

The project is making advancements, it's always good to hear :

Publication n°72: Simulation of the millisecond timescale

For those who didn't see the official announcement : Power Outage at Stanford

[toTOW]

SMP2 approaches, client update posted!

[John Naylor]

SMP2 preparing for -advmethods; new benchmarks

In other news, toTOW didn't want to triple post so you've got me instead

[toTOW]

SMP2 out on -advmethods, projects 6012-6015

[toTOW]

Some new things today ...

We start with a news : A non-Extreme Edition Gulftown is confirmed: the i7 970

And we finish with the long expected hardware review : Hardware test of the nVidia GT240

We start with a news : A non-Extreme Edition Gulftown is confirmed: the i7 970

If I could express more happiness, I would!

Thanks for info!
