Originally posted by bug77 View PostThe only leap in GPGPU performance since 8000 series was the GTX480/470/465. GTX460 had its GPGPU capability scaled back. And the 500 series apparently got the enhancements back. But when you're looking at 9000 vs 200 series, it's the same architecture. I think only the video engine was changes, besides the number of pipes.
You might want to look at this for a good comparison:

Can anyone tell me how to get the OpenCL stuff to run? I've installed the latest Nvidia drivers, 260.19.29, but when I install the phoronix-test-suite packages it says I need to install the Nvidia OpenCL package. I've googled and looked on the forums, but I can't find anything about how to get OpenCL to work.
I have an 8800GT, gtx 460, and a gtx 470 that I'd like to benchmark.

The benches require that the openCL headers be placed in /usr/include/CL/. The headers you can get when you install the cuda sdk available here:

Originally posted by bug77 View PostI don't see anything about 64bit precision over there. I see more registers, more threads and warps per multiprocessor and couple of atomic operations support. I'm not really familiar with gpu computing, but these all look like minor improvements to me.
