Hi;

It seems I am not experiencing any faster computation speed from the latest Boinc Client 6.4.5 using the
CUDA add on. My project is Seti@Home

OS: Windows XP Media Center (Pro) 32 bit w/ Sp3

Video Card: NVidia GeForce 8800 GT

Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.4 GHz
2.0 GB RAM

driver version: 180.48

I down loaded the the new Boinc client.

Downloaded the latest NVidia Driver (ver.180.48)

Restarted Client stated that it did have CUDA Compatible components.
The option for the GPU is enabled on my settings.
But I am not seeing any benefit.
I am not getting any error messages what so ever.

Any thoughts?? AM I doing something wrong?

I'm not sure what you expected but do read the CUDA FAQ first. Perhaps that it gives some clues.
