[TPR] GIMPS Perpetual Thread: Part 13 - A 'prime' thread to announce M48 and find M49
- Thread starter digital_concepts
- Start date
Note that with the new error-checking PRP test you can:
- Run Prime95 on overclocked or less-than-reliable computer hardware (CPU) and it will correct for hardware/memory errors.
- You can run gpuowl on a GPU and it will error-check and correct hardware/memory errors.
My cheap 2060 Super is faster in first-run PRP tests (110M) than my i9-9900K or my 3950X.
A Radeon VII is the fastest platform of all platforms for prime searching.
If anyone needs help setting this stuff up let me know. It is surprisingly easy!

One of the best things about the new software is that your slow computers can pick up CERT work and still be productive.
