That was easily the most muddled/garbled article I've read... True True. I did like the part about the plug in video card for laptops. If that could somehow be modified (higher voltage, full size cards and so forth) then it'd be quite fun. ____________ Executive Director GPU Users Group Inc. - brad@gpuug.org | |

That was easily the most muddled/garbled article I've read... I was thinking about one of those ViDock things to use a PCIe card in my old Pentium M notebook. ____________ SETI@home classic workunits: 93,865 CPU time: 863,447 hours Join the BP6/VP6 User Group today! | |

Today is AMD HD 7950 day: | |

Hi Alex, I hope I find you well. Good links, but out of my price range I'm afraid ... | |

Someone has a 7970 crunching over at Colatz | |

Hal9000, that's about the 2nd coolest electronic toy I've ever seen! Now, how to get >1 ViDock onto one pci-e/expresscard i/f?? :) Lt EDTI: If BOINC can recognize an externally connected video card and it can be used in GPU mode, that would certainly be a big PLUS! Especially for PCI-e slot bound motherboard/laptop owners... | |

In my case it is ExpressCard 1.0 so only 250 MB/s instead of the 625 MB/s that 2.0 offers. So effectively a PCIe 1.0 x1 connection. Granted in my case that could reduce the amount of work a GPU could do crunching. However a fraction of something is greater than nothing. Besides it would be funny to see my old Pentium M with a RAC of like 10,000 or something silly. ____________ SETI@home classic workunits: 93,865 CPU time: 863,447 hours Join the BP6/VP6 User Group today! | |

and all for a good cause! Cause you can! LOL My ancient HP7150 PII (MMX only) laptop has just a PCMCIA slot, but I have an Expresscard adapter for it. Lt | |

Hi Alex, I hope I find you well. Good links, but out of my price range I'm afraid ... Hey Chris! It's snowing here!:D As for the prices, here's the latest from the grapevine: AMD will release low end cards mid Febuary. In March they will be releasing GPUs just below the 7950. Intel will be releasing Ivy Bridge 22nm on April 8th. Apparently Nvidia are waiting for this date and will be releasing their 560 replacement just before the Intel launch. By the end of June they will release most of their single GPU cards. Also it's rumoured the Kepler cards are a huge improvement over Fermi and far better than the AMD cards (don't shoot the messenger). IF this is true (big if) then the prices for 7970/7950 should be down by 30% come summertime (maybe more). All of the above is based on rumours. If Nvidia really do start releasing Kepler in April, then all the dust (and prices) should have settled by the end of Summer. My best guess is that's the time to invest in a new GPU. Also, sometime before Xmas Windows 8 should be out so I can see a lot of people upgrading before the end of 2012. Should be a fun year:) | |

ya, sounds fun | |

Well, this leak looks too good to be true... | |

I'm sure that Nvidia will take crown in terms of performance. More important is price/performance ratio, compared to AMD new 79x0 and previous line GF5x0... Will see soon :) | |

More important is price/performance ratio, compared to AMD new 79x0 and previous line GF5x0... Will see soon :) Don't forget the power consumption. Nvidia is the most intelligent .. fan heater AFAIK .. :-)) ____________ | |

More important is price/performance ratio, compared to AMD new 79x0 and previous line GF5x0... Will see soon :) Well, I hope they'll have something that comes in under 75 W as my new "Enterprise" [(hp)] machine has no PCI-E power connectors to run a heftier GPU than its current GT440. ____________ | |

Two affordable GCN cards today: | |

Two affordable GCN cards today: Those are good comparisons. I favor the anandtech review as it includes the 5750 that I have in my HTPC. From those tests I would say I could upgrade to a 7770 to have lower power usage, less noise, and more grunt. I also like that the charts had the 4870 and 6870 as I just upgraded my other machine from the 4800 to the 6800. ____________ SETI@home classic workunits: 93,865 CPU time: 863,447 hours Join the BP6/VP6 User Group today! | |

They might have double precision but with only 640 stream processors/shaders, they are way down the list compared with 5850/5870 cards in performance. | |

I am waiting for the 7850 to be released. | |

I am waiting for the 7850 to be released. Grapevine says March 6 (or the week after) | |
