Not sure why, but my 5870 runs two incredibly quickly, but when I try three, it freaks out. I'd be interested to hear from other 5870 users out there, if they have the same problem. When I say "freaks out", I mean errors out on the third unit immediately. But 1 or 2 runs like a champ. In fact, it's even FASTER than my 460s when you take into account the amount of work the 5870 is doing over the 460. I was really looking forward to the MB app for ati/amd and I have NOT been disappointed. Amaaaaaazing work Raistmer. Now I just wish ATI would hurry up and release the 6990 so I can move up in the rankings a bit faster. I should pass into second in my signup date stats today (04 Nov 2002). Gonna be a while before I catch up to #1 guy on my signup date though, he's got over 45 million credits, compared to my 1.6 million. I stopped crunching for several years, but never fell below 4th. With the brilliant ATI/AMD apps, I will now be able to make a serious run for the #1 spot. ;) -baron_iv Proud member of: GPU Users Group |

according to the Lunatic forums the 6XXX's don't work well so far with the ATI apps. I imagine Raistmer knows more about this than anyone. Maybe he can explain better In a rich man's house there is no place to spit but his face. Diogenes Of Sinope |

Any Idea when this will be public? I would like to Buy New Card/Cards but Want them to be Seti@home capable. So i can either get 2 ATI or 1 Nvidia cards. |

Any Idea when this will be public? I was thinking of asking the same question. Wish I hadn't just ordered a 5830. Guess I can keep crunching AP until they run out and maybe the GPU gods will smile on us ATi users and it won't be too long. ;) |

Amen to that. I can't see me 'retiring' the 4870 Vapor-X or the Gelid-cooled 4890 in the respective PCs very soon - they're just way too good for that. Therefore, as you may assume, I'm watching the forums regarding ATI apps, with great interest. Don't take life too seriously, as you'll never come out of it alive! |

Yeah, I'm with you. I can't afford to retire a card I haven't even received yet. :D |

If i buy ATI cards could I possibly get in on the Beta? |

If i buy ATI cards could I possibly get in on the Beta? if you can properly edit app_info - why not... |

My first MB result, a vlar, is here - a little over 77 minutes on my HD 5870 (one of two in the machine) on an i7 2600. Currently configured for 1 task per GPU and -period_iterations_num 2. I'll be trying -period_iterations_num 1 next to see how that goes. -Dave |

You can easily run 2 instances like i do on the 5850. Will not increase crunch times much. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

I figured I would get at least one in without an error before I bumped it to 2. I have since done so. Still trying to figure out the best value for -period_iterations_num to make it less laggy on this system. It's not too bad at the moment with it set to 3, but there are pretty noticeable pauses. -Dave |

For reference: " I seem to have a problem with the MB version for ATI. I got a new laptop and it has an ati radeon HD mobility 5870. It says it's functionally equivalent to a 5770 from the desktop, which means no double-precision fp unit, but seti is single-precision. I couldn't get AP to run at all, but I figured MB would run. Here's the unit that errored out. Not sure if it will help you diagnose the issue or not: Anyone else tried on mobility GPU? stderr shows that OpenCL devices not found on that host... |

Got a error message right now while computing. WoW, anyone knows what BOINC meant by this statement? "Insufficient ATi", LoL. Quite right though, in some sense they always insufficient :))))))))))) |

Got a error message right now while computing. Very weird indeed. Had a couple of those last night. I realized it happens if 1 out of 2 units running are VLAR´s. Also had a couple of "Heavy" units taking 50 minutes instead of 30. Not labled as VLAR. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

Did research on my results. A little confusing to me is the run times on 0.42 units. Some finnish in 1800 seconds and others need over 3000 seconds. Same AR. Any ideas ? With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

Looks like mobility GPU works OK after driver rep[lacement: Ok, I fixed the issue. I think the problem was the drivers that came with the laptop (asus g73jh). I uninstalled EVERYTHING from ATI/AMD, rebooted, downloaded the latest 10.12 reference mobility driver, re-checked all my info in my appinfo, reinstalled the reference mobility driver, rebooted and it started purring like a kitten. For reference: |
