Running a Hexcore 980X on a EVGA classy MOBO with 6G ram @3.9ish on W7 64bit. Currently running GTX460 and GTX465 on HCC1 without app_info.xml file. 1/gpu.
Is there anything I should know/do before yanking the NV cards and switching to 7870 card? I have stopped accepting new work to get rid of the HCC1 projects but will have CPU tasks in Qeue. I plan to run driver sweeper once before pulling the NV cards and once after adding the 7870. Then finding a driver for the 7870. What's my best driver for 6-10 HCC1 tasks on the 7870 (2G version)?
Card is out for delivery and I'm so giddy about it that I want to make sure that I cover all bases.
Plan on using this from Bearcat's post.... Nano's xml:

Re: GPU Optimisations


"@Bearcat- No, that will not work for GPU only. That app_info is for GPU and CPU HCC tasks. Below is what you need for GPU tasks only. Make sure your profile @ WCG for this cruncher is set to receive no CPU tasks.

<app_info>
<app>
<name>hcc1</name>
<user_friendly_name>Help Conquer Cancer</user_friendly_name>

</app_info>

To change the amount of tasks you want to run simultaneously change the <count>.25</count> parameter. .25 is for 4 tasks. .50 is for 2. .33 is for 3.


Got this from nanoprobe. Use this and you will get just GPU."
