From who? ATI isn't providing enough software support for preparing programs to run on their graphics cards yet, so expect very few BOINC projects to put in the extra effort required to get past their lack of support before this changes.

The new ATI 5xxx series are openCL capable and there is increasing number of BOINC projects with CUDA support which means more competition for the GPU cycles. Just look at the Collatz or MilkyWay pojects. They are able to produce an ATI app and You can see how much work they're doing right now. Still the Folding@Home is also using the ATI cards....

Maybe talking to the guys from F@H would help? They produced app for ATI cards. So maybe they can guide You? ID: 14824 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Yeah I can see that Nvidia will no longer let a person use the crunching power that you paid for with the 480 series card. Go figure. Maybe its now time to get serious about ATI power.. :) DD, ID: 16247 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

We are working with ATI to get a faster version on their cards as well. GDF ID: 16308 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

An AMD/ATI OpenCL math library that MIGHT help: http://developer.amd.com/gpu/appmathlibs/Pages/default.aspx Contains some FFT functions, so could you look it over and let us know if it contains something suitable for the missing function?
