I thought AMD was good at FP type projects. I was told even at this date that a 7970 was pretty good as some, but I don't have that anymore.Shrug. It's a Polaris GPU. Not horrible at compute, can do 30MH/sec in ETH, but under-performs at F@H. (300K PPD)

We have now a first GPU version for the M Queens project for Windows. It requires an OpenCL 2.0 GPU. The version can be downloaded from github.com. The zip contains an installation instruction, the app and the app_info.xml.
I'm not aware of any projects on Linux where an RX 590 will perform better than even some of your 'lower end' Nvidia cards you don't always run(2060, 1070ti, etc.). Even Einstein which was historically pretty good on AMD cards runs pretty well on Nvidia cards these days as far as I know.It will be on linux.....
Oh well, I guess another paper weight.I'm not aware of any projects on Linux where an RX 590 will perform better than even some of your 'lower end' Nvidia cards you don't always run(2060, 1070ti, etc.).

I got it free. Just wondering where I should use it.Polaris cards perform pretty well in E@H due to HBM as E@H is GPU memory speed sensitive. Per watt it at least used to be pretty good, not sure how it stacks up with Ampere now though. in E@H on polaris cards, there wasn't much if a difference between 470, 480, 570, 580 so a 590 may not be worth extra over those cards. OCing the mem gave the most boost while reducing core volts dropped power. Similar to mining.
Just a correction, possibly, Polaris used GDDR5, not HBM. Unless you were talking about the bandwidth of said GDDR5 in general, I wasn't sure. Fiji and Vega used HBM.Polaris cards perform pretty well in E@H due to HBM as E@H is GPU memory speed sensitive.

Its a XFX Radeon RX 590 Fatboy from 2018. Like I said, no idea what to do with it. Worse case ? My new 12700F has 9800 GTX+ from like 14 years ago, and this would replace that.Just a correction, possibly, Polaris used GDDR5, not HBM.

Anyway, congrats on the free RX 590 Mark! Just curious, what model/make is it?
As some have mentioned, at this point it might be most valuable as an older midrange gaming card. I figure it might do decent in Milkyway@home and ETH mining, but I am not certain, might not be worth it. I know back in the day, before I got into mining at all, but I did some DC, like F@H, and then BOINC, Geforce always did better at folding but Radeons did better at projects like Milkyway etc. Of course this was back when I had a GTX 260 and then an HD 5870, all on a first gen i7 Bloomslfield/Gulftown on X58.

(source)In 2017 Christian Beer (E@h moderator) said:Double precision is only needed at the end of a task for a short time. The test is done at the beginning to determine if this can be done on the GPU or CPU. [In the latter case] the app should fall back to CPU processing of this part of the computation.
(source)In 2018 Gary Roberts (E@h moderator) said:If you are talking about the FGRPB1G search using GPUs, only the final followup stage (<10% of the calculation) uses double precision. If the GPU doesn't have DP capability, the followup stage would use a CPU core - and take a lot longer. So DP capability is quite desirable. My impression is it doesn't need to be particularly 'strong'.
At the moment on an AMD HD7850 GPU running 2 concurrent tasks, the followup stage takes around 20-30 secs out of an overall crunch time of perhaps 28 mins (two tasks completed). This is about a fifth of what it used to be on previous data files so the nature of the data has changed somewhat recently.
