Ok so I got my new 7850 installed and crunching the only problem is that it will not go above seventy percent usage where as my previous one was flat out.
Got the latest drivers and the lasted bionic so I am not sure what else to do.
Any ideas people
Thanks

Run two instances on the GPU?

Find the app_info.xml in your \BOINCDATA\projects\boinc.thesonntags.com_collatz folder

Look for the:
PHP:
		  <coproc>
			  <type>ATI</type>
			  <count>1</count>
		  </coproc>

in the file and change the 1 to 0.5 so it looks like:

PHP:
		  <coproc>
			  <type>ATI</type>
			  <count>0.5</count>
		  </coproc>

You may also want to make sure you have the optimised app.
 
I cant for the life of me find that file , I have looked through my boinc folders several times. I found the collatz folder no problem but there is no app info file :/
 
If you are using Windows 7 then it is located here:

c:\users\all users\boinc\projects\boinc.thesonntags.com_collatz

I am using the latest version of Boinc so it should be the same for you if running Win 7.
