Well Boinc is detecting SSE3 if its present and usable but one called it pni instead of SSE3 !?!
So Boinc reports this: 08.08.2013 18:43:37 | | Starting BOINC client version 7.2.5 for windows_x86_64 08.08.2013 18:43:37 | | log flags: file_xfer, sched_ops, task 08.08.2013 18:43:37 | | Libraries: libcurl/7.25.0 OpenSSL/1.0.1 zlib/1.2.6 08.08.2013 18:43:37 | | Data directory: D:\BOINC.DATA 08.08.2013 18:43:37 | | Running under account Boss 08.08.2013 18:43:37 | | Processor: 2 AuthenticAMD AMD C-50 Processor [Family 20 Model 1 Stepping 0] 08.08.2013 18:43:37 | | Processor features: fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 htt pni ssse3 cx16 popcnt syscall nx lm svm sse4a ibs skinit wdt page1gb rdtscp 08.08.2013 18:43:37 | | OS: Microsoft Windows 7: Professional x64 Edition, Service Pack 1, (06.01.7601.00) Or inside Boincsource - http://boinc.berkeley.edu/gitweb/?p=boinc-v2.git;a=blob;f=client/hostinfo_wi n.cpp FEATURE_TEST(std_supported, (std_ecx & (1 << 0)), "pni "); This should be fixed! Both PDFs (Intel and AMD) talk about SSE3 when doing CPUID EAX=0000:0001 --> ECX Bit00 So one should change FEATURE_TEST(std_supported, (std_ecx & (1 << 0)), "pni "); To FEATURE_TEST(std_supported, (std_ecx & (1 << 0)), "sse3 "); Regards [P3D] Crashtest Leipzig / Saxony / Germany _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
