I think we are waiting for you to show us the way

Supposedly no stable FAH client yet, unless things have changed in the last week or so.

Someone did find a way to get a PrimeGrid sieve working on a 7970. Not the one for this next race, though.

i've only seen talk about the 7970 over at SETI@Home, but no experiments yet. if you're familiar with the project, then you know that nVidia's FERMI architecture of the GTX 4xx and 5xx series GPUs is far more efficient than AMD's VLIW4 & VLIW5 architectures of the HD 5xxx and 6xxx series GPUs regarding the Multibeam application, while the situation is quite the opposite with regard to the Astropulse application. i'm hoping that the GCN architecture of AMD's new HD 7xxx series GPUs will make it competitive with (or perhaps better than) FERMI with respect to Multibeam, and that AMD will continue to improve its performance gap over FERMI with regard to Astropulse crunching efficiency.

I've been out of it for the last six months..

Anyone hear anything regarding Folding@Home running on 7970 hardware?

 

[wayliff]

How about this?

also the latest AMD drivers release includes "stability fixes" for OpenCL and it even mentions Folding in the release notes.

POEM@Home also works with the 7970
