GTX cards replacement - hermix - 04-29-2012 Hi, I don't know what really happened, but after a shortcut in my 1000W power supply, my two GTX cards are dead (GTX480 + GTX570) (of course, the power supply is dead too). I have dried my eyes, replaced the power supply, and now starting to consider buying new cards. So, why not switching to ATI cards ? I have potential budget for two HD7950 cards, but I'm a bit afraid since I heard about ATI drivers instability under Linux (at least in the past). I use Ubuntu as OS (10.04 TLS). Could someone advice me if it is a good configuration for GPU computing ? (including oclHashcat, of course) Thank you very much. RE: GTX cards replacement - forumhero - 04-30-2012 no issues with AMD drivers for me in ubuntu x64 11.10. i'm running 4xhd5970s with catalyst 12.2. remember NOT to install SDK and you'll be fine |
