Hi, how important is the amount of RAM on these cards?
For example 4870 based cards are sold in 512meg and 1024meg versions.
Does this affect the RAC generated the card?

Mike.

No. The amount of RAM just affects the number of WUs you can run at once on the card, and usually 2-3 WUs at a time is enough to maximize the potential of the cards. 512MB should handle 2-3 WUs fine.
