info on AM2 4600 cpu and Seti

Hi
Does anyone have evidence that the new AM2 4600 X2 cpu's are supported in
Seti under XP 32bit or 64 ?

I don't know why it wouldn't be. Do you have any reason to think it is
not supported? There doesn't appear to be a 64-bit version of BOINC,
but the 32-bit application should run under 64-bit XP.

Hi
Thanks for the reply but, dont you think that if there isnt a 64bit version
then it might not be fully
supported for 64bit processors ???

I run seti on my X2 3800+ under 32-bit XP. It may not be fully
optimized for 64-bit systems yet, but there is no reason to think that
it simply won't work.

I didnt say seti wouldnt work i wanted to know if it was optimized for x64
My 4600 completes one unit in 59mins.

That sounds like a pretty good time. My 3800+ overclocked to 2.4GHz
takes a bit over 4 hours per unit, but I only run seti on one core.
Even so, the best I could hope for is probably 2 hours. That extra L1
cache you have must really help.

-Dylan C

Dont you mean L2 cache(512K)
And how do you only use one core ???

If an aplication doesn't have a switch or setting to force it to run on a
specified core (most don't) then you can force it manually via Task Manager
right-click on the process select Set Affinity or permanently via a
utility like ImageCFG.

cool thanks DRS
