Thanks for the list, guys. I'll start testing out my card later when I get home from uni.
EDIT: Almost 7 years as a proud member of AMD Users. It's been a long time!

Congrats BlackAdder! How time flies when you're having fun.
You have been below my radar lately, if I had spotted you earlier I would have added you to the Wiki... but then again I have been busy with work so have come over here less frequently. You are in line for a much due "Wikification"... lol.
I joined AMD Users when I got my AMD Athlon XP 2000+ back in... I can't remember when already. lol
But it was one great machine that gave me plenty of points on the classic SETI@Home at the time... oh the memories of the good old times when there was no boinc and CPUs only had 1 core...

The good old days when there was only one project, so you could estimate which CPU suited you most: http://ksetispy.sourceforge.net/SetiTimer.php We could use an application like that again, but development on KSetiSpy seems to have fallen flat.oh the memories of the good old times when there was no boinc and CPUs only had 1 core...
Yes, basically there are just a few ATI GPU projects: Milky Way (Provided you have an Ati card with a Double Precision Floating Point Unit, so a Radeon HD 38xx, 48xx, 47xx, 58xx, 59xx, FirePro V87xx, FireStream 92xx (and sorry: Windows only)), DNETC (also Windows only), Collatz (err....Windows only) and Seti@Home, see http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum...d.php?id=61626
GPUGrid seems to be working towards supporting ATI cards too
I found a thread on their forums about testing with 5870's.

From what I've read they tried to make it an OpenCL application, but you need to register at AMD to get 2.2 SDK dll's (or 2.3 which will hopefully work better) and it only works on ATI 58xx cards it seems (and I may hope HD5970s as well, while they're working on 57xx support, but no lower, so my 'new' HD3870 is definitely out). Performance is still not great, as is with Seti@Ati

Nope, not true. I'm running the 2.2 SDK (w/OpenCL 1.1 support) on one of my Kubuntu machines that I slipped a 4850 into along with the newly patched 10.9 driver and Catalyst. It was *_NOT FUN_* figuring out that there was an issue with desktop compositing and effects wrestling with the OpenGL at the same time. I'm documenting a BugTrack for submittal on this (I suspect very few people have had any success getting the OpenCL up and running on *_ANY_* KDE 4.x desktops). But, your truely did and it works pretty sweet. I'm still in testing and benching, but so far the numbers are DAMN GOOD considering I'm running an $80US TeraScale adapter. I'm in new territory and that's what I LIVE for...
