F@H GPU benchmark chart

[Assimilator1]

Whilst reading a review about my new graphics card I spotted this comparision chart, thought it might be quite useful 🙂.
Their X2 & GX2 scores are meaningless though as they have only run 1 GPU client on those cards!😕

It shows my card at 2675 ppd, currently mine's showing 2697 ppd so that's pretty close (must have similar scored WU by chance).

Oh btw if anyone knows a more comprehensive chart or 1 for CPUs then post away 🙂.

Did you notice it said that the score was for running only one of the two GPUs?

Thanks for a good read! 😀

Due to the different GPU designs, different types of work unit were used.

Which means you cannot really compare the PPD.

Thanks for the link AS1!! :beer:

has anyone else noticed that the 4870 is doing better than the 4870X2 😕

 

[Assimilator1]

Yea I saw that too, I guess the extra traffic from 2 GPUs is causing some extra latency?
Oh & did you notice they said they only used 1 GPU client? 😉.

Why they didn't use the 2nd GPU is beyond me, seems utterly stupid to include them then!:roll:

Well you can but you only get a rough idea, as we all know ppd of the same rig varies alot.
My 2xSMP went from 3400-4200, so a rough ballpark figure 😉.

This is kinda old man..New drivers, new cores, new WUs, the PPD has changed by more or less 10%. It is a good read and it shows that NVIDIA dominates ATI in folding.

Yea I know for ATI they use cat 8.10 drivers & 8.12 are now available, also the GPU core has been updated, including a very recent update for ATI cards which boosted their performance a little. However it still gives a ballpark comparision 🙂.

As I said, if anyone knows of a better/new chart then give us the links :thumbsup:.

And yea I'm one of the people who are hoping that better F@H ATI performance will be sooner rather than latter! 😉, although I didn't buy an ATI card for F@H in the 1st place.
