It is the new Toxic HD5970 with 4!! GB of ram memory. This card would be awesome in GPU computing.
The question is: will CUDA for ATI development take so long? That's because I'm thinking to begin save some cash to get one of these babies

What about ATI?

Hi there, recently i've seen an article about a new ATI gpu from Sapphire.

I'm no pro in this, but CUDA is unique to nVidia. It's something that nvidia came up with and it's not just about programming but also hardware architecture. Besides, I'm sure nvidia holds rights to CUDA and it's not something ATI cards can just use. Yeah I heard the ATI cards are pulling ahead as far as playing video games and doing benchmarks, but I'll stay with nVidia, just cause nVidia always has vision beyond games.Maynardo wrote:Hi there, recently i've seen an article about a new ATI gpu from Sapphire.

If I buy Octane today, will I be able to upgrade it to support Ati cards if you provide OpenCL support in the future, or will that be an upgrade I have to pay for?
I cannot commit to an ATI version being delivered for our current v1.0 licenses at this time.

What about using ATI Stream? Thats ATIs answer to Cuda? the new SDK was just released days ago aswell.
there won't be an ATI version for long unless they decide to adopt Cuda.
OpenCL has poor performance on both platforms. I'v tested some OpenCL benchmarks and I had a few gigaflops\sec less than the same bench but on CUDA. On ATi ...
