Title: ATI drivers sucks Post by: dementyev on May 12, 2013, 07:45:01 PM Seriously every time I update my ATI drivers I end up spending 2 days fixing all the things that went wrong because of it. You think I'd have learned by now, I've been using their crap since 2005. Next time I'm going with Nvida.

Well for mining ATI ones are the best ones... with nvidia you will be looking into half performance (using CUDA vs Open CL) I bet at least half of the sales of ATI are thanks to cryptocurrenties :p Title: Re: ATI drivers sucks Post by: Ghepetto on May 12, 2013, 11:35:06 PM He said the N word
Title: Re: ATI drivers sucks Post by: AzureEngineer on May 12, 2013, 11:36:32 PM Nvidia is great at high workload, low frequency tasks.
Piss poor miners though.

You think I'd have learned by now, I've been using their crap since 2005. Next time I'm going with Nvida. I mentioned in another thread... Have you cold-booted your system? I've found that my ATI cards sometimes flake out and cause bluescreens if I reboot without coldbooting. Title: Re: ATI drivers sucks Post by: taiwanbtc on May 13, 2013, 12:32:42 AM LOL AT THE N WORD

That would stink to upgrade, however you realize Nvidia is useless for mining crypto-currencies as of now. You would be better up sticking with the drivers you have, why constantly upgrade when the current drivers you have work fine.

If your having major issues then look for updates other wise who cares? What are you gaining again?

Title: Re: ATI drivers sucks Post by: dementyev on May 13, 2013, 01:14:18 AM NVidia is about 5-10 times slower than price corresponding ATI graphics card One reason why I always went ATI. But I've had it with their godawful drivers. By the time I need a new card crypto-currency GPU mining will be all but pointless, it'll be single purpose specialized hardware (ASIC, etc) or don't even bother, so I'm not concerned about that aspect.
