Hi,

For those of you who want to participate in testing our upcoming OpenCL app targeting AMD/ATI GPUs, here are the current system requirements (we'll update this posting if the need arises, so I suggest you watch/subscribe to this thread):

* AMD GPU (360 MB free GPU memory, OpenCL 1.1 support)
* AMD Catalyst 11.7 (8.872) driver (and newer)
* BOINC 7.0.12 (and newer)
* Windows, Linux or Mac OS (10.7 only)

Please post your bug reports in a separate thread in the appropriate forum section.

Also, please note that NVIDIA GPUs will continue to be supported by our existing CUDA applications.


Thanks,
Oliver
