GPU computing benchmark site tip?

(moderation:
Anyone have a tip of a good site that benchmarks GPUs for computing, not just gaming?
I can find lots of reviews about how the new AMD Furry X handles Witcher 3 but not a single one about how it stacks up against the 980Ti in computing.

FWIW here is a reasonably current schemata. Doesn't mention CUDA per se, but probably represents the relative rankings well. It shows an interesting range of devices, OS's, test types, architectures etc. Was that what you had in mind ? :-)

It depends very much on the application. Application A can run faster on one card and application B on the other.
The new R9 Fury X should be very fast with double precision calculations, at least compared to the NVidia.
I'm very curious how it performs on einstein (it doesn't use double precision though).
Thanks Mike, that site was

Thanks Mike, that site was new to me and very nice. Unfortunately it does not include the Fury X yet.
Stef, yes it does depend on the application but I'm looking for a ballpark indication.
There was a thread here on E@H a long time ago that collected peoples GPU runtimes and made a list of GPUs for E@H tasks. But that thread has passed away peacefully.
My usual hardware sites all review the new Fury X but for some reason none of them perform any synthetic or computing benchmarks like they use to, it's all games. I realize that people don't spend these amounts of money on new GPUs to crunch on them but for me the computing performance is a factor when deciding on a new GPU.

afaik, e@h DOES use double precision.

There was a double precision GPU app for a now completed Gravity wave search, it has not been ported to the new Gravity wave search. All other GPU apps here are single precision.
