ATI Gflops (in works)

I make stickies every day! =))

heres what my ATI 6970 says according to BOINC:
1/9/2012 9:57:14 PM | | ATI GPU 0: AMD Radeon HD 6900 series (Cayman) (CAL version 1.4.1646, 2048MB, 2016MB available, 7296 GFLOPS peak)

Bah! Come back when you can tell us what that 7970 of yours says! :)

Oh I will, that's just for, uh, comparison sakes..... ;)

oh, I should mention, that above speed for my 6970 was with the GPU clocked at 950MHz

Here's my 7970 clocked at 1150 (with room to grow I believe):
1/14/2012 12:49:50 PM | | ATI GPU 0: ATI unknown (CAL version 1.4.1658, 3072MB, 3033MB available, 11551 GFLOPS peak)

Boinc 7.0.9 and higher will properly identify the 7970, earlier versions will show "unknown"

I just wanted this up for ref. It is unfinished but might save someone some time looking for something.

Is there a list anywhere that roughly pairs the card with points? As long as the project is consistent conclusions can be drawn between different cards.

I'm on a budget now (mortgage) and I'm losing points to a guy that I don't want to lose to, so I need to part together another system with a couple highly cost-effective GPUs.

Hi Krazy K, is there a specific project you want to run? I think some of us could give you a good direction to look at if we knew what project (or projects) you like to hit hard with the GPU. :)

Out of nowhere the guy behind me in Dirt has put up 22M in the last 28 days and with everything that I can to hold on to my Einstein lead he still has me by 400-500k ppd. I'm running a 470 on that along with some CPUs. After Dirt I would like to finish my badges and PG and then work on my GPUgrid badge.

OK - DiRT you are going to want either a 7970 (or similar ATI card) or NVidia side - GTX 570, etc... I think I would personally skip the 600 series because they are more expensive but don't really crunch any better. Do you have a target budget in mind?

I'm first going to see what I can dig out of my bins that still works and can work together. I'll probably need to put a few bucks into it to get something running. After that we'll see how much I can get for a kidney and then whatever is left over will go to student loans. On the walk down to the hospital the change I pick up will go to pay for food, but I should be able to donate blood to pay the electric bill. If I can make it to Mexico I might be able to bring back some pottery that I could sell for cash for GPUs for this project.
