BOINC 8.3.0.6b CNT
Separate CNT variant BOINC Manager for competitive and team use with Result Gate, extended statistics, localization and quick management of computing resources.
What applications solve
The project is based on the upstream BOINC 8.3.0 and expands Windows x64 Manager for long-term team operation. It does not change the BOINC protocol or compatibility with projects; it complements the controls and working procedures that are missing during competition.
Main characteristics
- Result Gate or Závora in OPEN, SOFT and HARD modes with protection against deadline.
- Scrollable statistics, a wider project panel, localisation corrections and externally defined topics.
- Quick setting of NCPUS, percentage of CPU and CPU duty-cycle from Advanced View.
- Strict No new task that stops the work- fetch, but retains existing work, upload and reports.
- Editor

Installation and confluence with upstream BOINC
BOINC CNT is the client and manager compilation for Windows x64. Before changing the installation, it is advisable to back up the BOINC data directors and check that the Core Client service is not running. The data directory, project accounts and developed tasks are separate from the programme files themselves; therefore, updates must not delete working data without justification.
Statistics and project management
The extended Manager uses scrollable statistics, a wider project panel and a clearer work with a larger number of accounts. Localization catalogues, corrected texts and external color themes maintain the same control for Czech and other language variants.
