    Without a doubt, great credit for CUDA, not the best for ATI. Also from what I'm seeing the ATI app needs around 12% CPU compared to less than 1% for CUDA, this will cut into your CPU projects.

    Agreed. But for 3 days, I'll run it...

    Yep! I'll upgrade to CAT 10.10 when I get home from Hawaii and get the cards setup

    You could just put the card on your wife's hint list for your x-mas present

    It seems that even with the temporary credit increase that the other ATI projects still pay better, for nVidia cards this is the motherload until they adjust the credits again. My pair of 275's was getting about 90k a day on GPUGrid, now getting over 300k a day.

    I have a 9800GT and it got 50K yesterday. The best I could do before that was 20K at dnetc. A former team mate gave me the card. Of course if your ATI is doing better than that, there's no reason to get one unless you have an open slot somewhere. Maybe it will help some team mates to invest if they find out that one of these cheapos can help them that much. It takes me 57 min to complete a task.

    EDIT: It's sad when I can read my own post and have trouble figuring out the relevance and what it is I'm trying to say.
