SETI CUDA Client Released - Use Your GPU to Crunch Satellite Data

SETI finally released a CUDA client that will allow you to use your NVidia card (it has to be fairly new) to process satellite data up to 10x faster than before.  Wow!

My system seems to be doing one work unit in about 25-30 minutes now [EDIT:  Ok, that’s normal I suppose.  Looks like the Linux version doesn’t do any CUDA workunits yet, even though it recognizes the GPU properly.]

To get the CUDA enabled version, go here: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/cuda.php
