I was wondering what projects are available for my HD5450 and HD5670 GPU's.

I've been crunching Seti@home for many years on my numeous CPU's, and I just recently started crunch Milkyway@home on my HD6950 GPU. However I'm having difficulty sifting through what projects are available for these other two. The HD5450 runs on Win7x64 and the HD 5670 runs on XP (32-bit).

Thanks.

- Einstein, OpenCL application (requires BOINC 7.0.28 + up-to-date Catalysts).
- Albert, Einstein's OpenCL test project.
- Seti@Home, through 3rd party Lunatics application one can run Seti Enhanced and Astropulse on ATI GPUs, but your CPU requires at least SSE. See http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=67407 for more information. Do know that by using the anonymous platform, you're responsible for updating the applications. BOINC won't do it automatically anymore.
- Seti@Home Beta, testing default OpenCL applications.
- Collatz Conjecture.
- POEM.
- Possibly Moo wrapper, but check their forums for information.

Milkyway requires a double precision GPU. Not all GPUs are.

OK, so I signed up for Primegrid. I ran a WU on the HD 5450 and it took 15.5 hours. For kicks, I ran 1 WU through my HD 6950.... 30 minutes. WOW! I guess there's a sort of benchmark. Geez.

Thanks.

- Primegrid@Home, has OpenCL and CUDA applications.
