[Beowulf] What class of PDEs/numerical schemes suitable for GPU clusters

[Jan Heichler]

Hallo Franz,

Freitag, 21. November 2008, meintest Du:

FM> the contrary.

FM> The distinction between Tesla and GeForce cards is that the former have

FM> about this one) they are clocked a little lower.

Don't forget that Teslas have ECC-RAM. Normal Graphic cards don't care about flipped memory bits. That does not count when processing DirectX or OpenGL - but it does for computation. So a highend GPU can miscalculate...
