GPU usage is still 98% so I'll see what my WU times are like and if it is better that way or not (probably not since everyone here is doing 10 lol)

EDIT: New Gigabyte 7950 Windforce ETA Monday, used MSI 7970 reference ETA Wednesday.

7950+7970 = >200k PPD
This may be a WCG bug with the WU's- I have seen a computation error pop up more often recently on all 3 of my GPU's (6870, 7870, and the 7770) and I'm using the 12.6 drivers on 3 different OS's (Vista, Win7 HPx64, and Win7 Prox64). I backed down one 7870 rig and it didn't change the occurrence of the error.

Will need to keep a closer watch on this- Thx!
