Thanks for the suggestion. I threw in a spare HDD last night and installed Ubuntu 12.04.5 and installed the 15.2 AMD drivers and got it working. A few trial and errors (more errors than I care to admit), but that's how I learn. ;)

Yeah, that's basically the same as maintaining Windows 7 box to keep that card in production. It's a shame AMD doesn't keep this card in it's updated drivers. It still has plenty of power (and draws as much), and with the shortage of GPUs right now, allowing people to dust off these cards and...

Thanks for taking time to look into this. Only other option I suspect is to find an old ISO for circa 2015 or before Ubuntu and try installing?

Curious if anyone has a way to get OpenCL drivers working under Linux for the AMD Radeon 7970 card. I have it running under a Windows 7 machine as the OPENCL drivers aren't available for Windows 10. Tried installing on Mint Linux 20.1, but AMD support for that card and Open CL seemed to stop...

Hey MP. I recognize the name from back in the day. I'm also using the proxy although I am actually on a separate team (BGod, Spacewalker and a few others) created our own team when DNet was losing steam here. Unfortunately I don't own the domain I registered under previously so although I can...

For the old farts, we should setup a Facebook Group as my jator.net forums are long since gone (some good jokes in there too. :( ).

Luckily my password creativity is pretty much non existent so I was able to figure it out pretty quickly. Will stick with this one going forward.

Took the words right out of my head. BGod I swear had a hidden camera in my house cause he always knew where I was.

Went mainstream and bought premade boxes and trying to keep my power bill under control. With the ATI graphics cards kicking but out in the wild, a quad core Pentium isn't going to impress the ladies. ;)

Hey Ken, long time no chat. Glad to see so many familiar faces checked in on this thread. Anyone hear from Lord Demios? Mika? bPhanton? You know, the UT clan. :P

Got nostalgic and stumbled upon this thread. Long live Team AnandTech. ;)

I agree with Ryan, though I am no longer a DC contributor, I always found this sub-forum to be one filled with honest, helpful individuals. I'll add my .02 to keep this sub-forum pure as possible.

I second that shout out. Nice to see some of the original Team AnandTech members still lurking around here. Someone put out an APB for Lord_Demios (LD), bphantom, BGod, Mech, etc. Even a shout out to the SysOpt crew that we had a nice friendly UT games with.

As a parent of a child with autism, I would ask you be more mindful when making comments like that. Thanks

And you as well. Glad to see some of the old timers (sad that some of us are just that these days) are still around.
