21) Questions and Answers : Issue Discussion : CPU extensions used? (Message 121)

Oh. Exactly the information I was looking for.
I think the AMD 3000 series supports avx512, so should get pretty good runtimes with my 3600 and 3700x. Amazing what 2 years does - my 1800x using 1/3 more power if not more is trounced on by the 3600.
I thought AMD was beating Intel on the AVX front, or at least keeping right up with them. I don't have anything newer than a 4770 that I want to test that theory on apart from an i7 8750h. Not a fair comparison anyway.

Am I missing something?
Beta test applications is not showing up under MLC preferences....unless it is no longer needed?

I love seeing projects like this and just happened to stumble across it from the status scheduler on Boincstats. Not a fan of the math projects out there, so seeing something different like this is refreshing! I have far more CPUs than GPUs.
Added my 100 plus threads - everything from Atom 3740, core 2 duo to Ryzen 3700x.
I know this has just started. Out of curiosity - Any plan to support AVX in the future? Or will it make much difference with these tasks.
My WCG cue should dry up soon enough - how are these tasks on ram and what can I expect for runtimes?
Super excited to be crunching here.
