But it is used on Autodock (as with Quarantine@Home), and of course WCG/Open Pandemics is trying to make it work too. So there would seem to be some possibility here. I am not sure that there is an advantage with efficiency (output per watt) as compared to a CPU, but it could be faster. Also, it would not be a good idea if it confuses the results. So I am not exactly waiting for it, but wondering. ID: 174 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

"...WCG/Open Pandemics is trying to make it work too." Funny how it worked fine for Scripps but Big Blue has to spend a year inspecting it. ID: 409 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
