Looking for testers with ATI cards that support ATI Stream Software Development Kit (SDK) v2.1 http://developer.amd.com/gpu/ATIStreamSDK/Pages/default.aspx#two

We are working on GPU support for GROMACS. We are paying a contractor to implement some changes. This is going to cost us $500 total. I'm planning to contribute $200 out of my pocket and hopeing to get some donations. We will submit these customizations to for BOINC integration to the OpenMM project. If they do not include them, we will make them available somewhere else. http://hydrogenathome.org/donations.php -Jack

Isn't GROMACS already used by Folding@Home? Don't they run GROMACS on their gpu apps, or maybe they run others?

And on the other piece of news... I wish I had a card capable of the ATI Stream 2.1 :)

Yes they do but only as a binary client app.
It sounds like Jack is having it re-coded (from source) to integrate with BOINC - as in full integration, not just a wrapper.

Me too. I am getting left behind for want of an ATI GPU. We'll have to do something about it soon.
