Radeon HD 7970 isn't getting any WUs (I reset the project).

The 5970 has really crappy VRM cooling, which is why I got 2 5870's.

The 69x0 series is rumored to have 1/4 the FP32 performance for FP64.
The 6990 consists of two Cayman cores.
It may take less than 1 1/2 minutes to complete even the longer work units.

Looks like I'm buying the HD 6970 then.

nVidia: software limitation (cripples hardware) 1/8 FP32
AMD: hardware limitation (though not crippled) 1/5 FP32

I'm looking at the DP performance between the FireStream and Radeon line and they both have the same 1/5 SP performance. Why would the FireStream GPU have the same "limitation"?

AMD puts a software limit on currently supported DP cards?
Cards like the 5770 simply don't have the feature.
