Guys

Wondering if someone has tried SETI crunching with a 5850 or the likes. I've been Nvidia for years now and am thinking of upgrading from my 8800gt to a gtx285. The 5850 seems like a more future proof card but I don't have any ATI experience of SETI or F@H.

I do use the gpu acceleration in photoshop and I know it works with Nvidia. Again any ATI users using gpu inn photoshop.

Thanks
 
You need to go to the performance section of preferences and make sure the Enable OpenGL Drawing is checked
 
It should do it automatically but I found out over the years to take nothing for granted.

It's a very quick check.

You can run into problems if you're opening a lot of images at once and you've enabled the option.

I did disable mine for a while.
