Moo, MW and Prime Grid don't run as is on a 7970.

Collatz appears to be running ok, WUs are completing, am awaiting validation by wingmen to see if it completed correctly.

MW and PrimeGrid PPS Sieve fall over quickly - in the first few seconds, so with luck shouldn't be too hard to find out the cause. The 7970s at least run on Collatz - await confirmation of validation - so its likely all will be well in the once there is time to focus on adjusting existing packages to keep things going until GCN can be properly brought into play.

See what the next couple of weeks brings ....

That's what I was Afraid of them not working at the Projects, well if Collatz works anyway it's something to run them on until the other Projects can be run ...

Although the 7970's Zydor ran at Collatz didn't Validate they did run them quite fast 9-10 Min's ... No point in even installing the ones I'm getting if there's no place to run them ... :(

Ste\/e, it might be a lot to ask but Crunch3r is really good at optimizing apps, so maybe drop him a line and see if he can help recode an app or two. Though he is not currently a team member he did register on this forum a couple of weeks back. You can also find him at http://www.mpits.net/

I just talked to tigerdirect, if I refuse the Order it will only cost me the $8-$9 Shipping Charge to me, they were just Delivered & I refused the Shipment. Think I'd rather return them & wait until they are capable of running at all the Projects rather than just have them sitting here doing nothing, probably can get a better deal in a few weeks anyway once the initial rush to buy them dies down ... ;)

Total bummer.

Ya know, if this happens to you again, you could always just do a redirect to my house...... :D

I will probably be using both the 6970 and 7970 for a while if it does end up projects don't like the new card, and just hold off on selling my 6970.

LOL!! Damn, F$ beat me to it. I figured you'd have just sold them on ebay. They are selling for higher than they were on Newegg.

Easier to just return them and eat the $8 Shipping Charge, would have had to sell them for over $600 to get my money back on AMAZON or Newegg after they take their share of the Sale & the Shipping I would have had to pay for ... Why anybody would pay more for them when they can be had at Newegg & Tigerdirect right now is beyond me ...
