[Sidefx-houdini-list] GPU question

[craigleehoffman at aol.com]

 Hi guys,

I know this has been beaten to death in the past, but anyone having problems (or good luck..) with the new ATI 5000 series GPUs running Houdini on Windows 7?

Generally I stick to NVidia cards, but I want to get a new laptop that supports DirectX 11 (for future-proofing), and the ATI 5000 series are the only affordable DX11 mobile GPU's out (not sure if the NVidia Fermi chips have shipped yet- but they likely won't be cheap...).

Thanks for any information/insight.

Cheers,
Craig Hoffman
