    Just a heads up on some driver information for the GPU3 client that (hopefully) will be released soon. You will need to have a basic level of drivers to take advantage of this client. See the following information from Stanford on the correct driver to use this new client.

    Quote from article -
    1) In order to get WUs using this new core, donors will need to make sure their CUDA level is least CUDA 2.2, but ideally 2.3 or the most recent. To know which version of CUDA you have, you can find out based on your driver version:

    CUDA 2.0: 177.35+
    CUDA 2.1: 180.60+
    CUDA 2.2: 185.85+
    CUDA 2.3: 190.38+
    CUDA 3.0/OpenCL: 195.36+

    Thx. lbmest!

    Now I understand why GPU-Z shows that OpenCL is enabled.

    I couldn't figure out why all the sudden it showed up.

    Using driver version 196.21 at this posting.
