GPU Credit

The PC with the Nvidia 9800 GT has been running for a few days now and the increase in credit is amazing. A single GPU worth $175 is out-performing a brand new computer that I would have paid over $1000 dollars for.




This graph from BOINCStats gives an indication on how the credit/day has improved from the standard AMD Athlon X2 4000+. Mention must be made that I am only only running BOINC projects on one CPU due to the high usage problem with the Linux CUDA client. Things will get even better once this has been resolved.
