Very nice. Now I need to find a $1 Radeon card to flash with a compatible Mac BIOS and my free Power Mac will be ready to go.

I'm sorely tempted to get a 480 as I got a bit hooked with CUDA on the 275. With the full speed double precision, increased cache and full IEEE 754 support, it looks a real computational powerhouse :)


Save yourself a bit of cash and buy two or three 460s instead. ;-)

My existing motherboard doesn't do SLI, only crossfire. It was one of the first to support the Q9450 and at that point there were shenanigans between nVidia and intel. Alas, thanks to my X48 chipset, no SLI for me.

Of course, that could be the perfect excuse to get an X58 and core i7...

However, getting a bit off-topic here :-)


I think the 460 only supports two-way SLI, but even without that, can't you address the cards individually with CUDA, or does the API depend on hardware SLI?
