It's got 48 shaders at 1.3 GHz, so it looks similar to the 9600GSO 512 MB. It will be relatively slow, but should finish a WU in under 2 days. Which is sufficient to run GPU-Grid, even if you don't crunch 24/7. | |

Good point. I assumed they wouldn't pass the new GT200 architecture down into the performance-doesn't-matter-anyway range if they did not even bother to do it in the mid range. And that if they didn't tell us a super cool new feature is included it probably isn't. | |

A Dell XPS 435 ?!? My principal requirements on any PC purchase are: 1. A decent warrantee, with on-site service. 2. Everything in English. Since I live in France, 2. is a challenge. The only source I've found is Dell, who will supply an all-English PC and three years on-site service, extendable by another two years. XPS 435? i7 processor at a price that's less than half their high-end gaming machines. As the charming meerkat says; "Simples"! Tom | |

FWIW, the Dell XPS 435 arrived four days ago. My first action was to swap its GT 220 with the 9600 GSO from my old Dell 9100 Pentium D 3.20. | |

what does boinc say for the 220? The last time I looked it wasn't listed. how many gflops, and btw, how many cores does the card have? Don't understand the gflops question, but the Nvidia System Monitor shows:
it may just be me, but i have a feeling that when i buy dell, i get bought cheap. The crazy thing is that Dell Europe only offers the GT 220. Dell U.S. let you buy the GTX 260 with the XPS 435. Tom ____________ | |

Boinc Manager, Advance view, Messages tab. it's at the top of the messages after cpu and some other stuff. How about: 02/09/2009 19:28:49 CUDA device: GeForce GT 220 (driver version 19062, compute capability 1.2, 1024MB, est. 23GFLOPS) Tom | |

thanks, we were wondering what compute compatibility of that card was, 1.2 not bad, it's a step up from 1.1 of the 8, 9 series. | |

Anyone feeling bored enough to ask them whether "GT220" is CUDA hardware capability 1.1 or 1.3 or else? It's 1.2. Tom | |

The GT220 looks really nice for a lew end card! - 9600GSO: 11.9 GFlop/GB** MrS (*) maximum GFlops, not measured by BOINC (**) lower is better ____________ Scanning for our furry friends since Jan 2002 | |
