RAC in seti:

8 cores plus GTX 650: 6,996.49
16 cores (no cuda)...: 6,903.29

I didn't think it would overtake the beefier system so quickly, I am impressed.
This isn't even one of those expensive fast awesome video cards!
 
Yep, you're seeing for yourself why GPUs are the place to focus programming and optimization efforts, because all that number running is what GPUs do best. 🙂
 
It certainly varies by application, though. My PrimeGrid sieve application works as fast as ~50 CPU cores! But an application that actually tests for primes can't even beat one core - in this case, due to memory latency/bandwidth limits.
