2) Message boards : Number crunching : Current List ATI card support (Message 34939) Posted 31 Dec 2009 by tombew Post: I can't seem to find a current list of supported ATI cards. ... my apologies in advance if I have missed it.... I am especially interested in support for 5770 my Win7 box.
3) Message boards : Number crunching : ATI 4770 work ... or not? (Message 30406) Posted 9 Sep 2009 by tombew Post: The solution would be running a minimum number of other applications in Windows. Running WMP, CCC, and other programs that access the video board while crunching result in driver resets. Flash content in IE8 also interferes with the video board, so I usually suspend MW before browsing rich-content web pages or running games. Finally, after changed to ATI_Catalyst_Windows7_8.612_no_CCC.exe crunching with 4770 is looklike more stable now. Did you have to "turn off" or disable anything to get this to work?

I am thinking about a 4770 as a stopgap, and as low-watt-per-work-unit for MW. - Tom

The single GPU version will be called the 5870 and will set you back only about $399. The 5850, the least expensive video card in the 58xx line, will sell for about $299." Radeon 58xx Pricing

I guess I'll postpone making a decision on new videocard - looks like we may know this week about ATI's new cards - 1600/800 shaders $300/$200??? - and maybe get some sort of indication of actual availability. Now does not seem a good time to be looking at nVidia cards - ATI introductions may put them under severe price pressure.

I seem to be reading "it should work", but I haven't read any actual "works for me". XP-32 or Vista-64 .... or, for that matter, W7-64
