"opencl_nvidia_101" WU's do not use my nvidia unit. How can I insist on CUDA WU's ? What nvidia unit do you have? Does BOINC 'see' the nvidia unit upon boot (see BOINC-log)?

Last modified: 4 May 2020, 2:14:09 UTC I see you have both a Intel UHD 620 GPU and a NVIDIA GeForce MX150, does BOINC see both? The following assumes your BOINC data directory is C:\ProgramData\BOINC. Step by step: 1. Start up Notepad 2. Paste the following code into your cc_config.xml file, located in C:\ProgramData\BOINC. If it doesn't exist, make one using notepad, save as .txt and alter the suffix to .xml (ignore the warnings). <cc_config> <options> <use_all_gpus>1</use_all_gpus> </options> </cc_config> 3. Save it into C:\ProgramData\BOINC as cc_config.xml (careful, Notepad likes to put .txt on the end of the filename) 4. Shut down your BOINC client if its running 5. Start BOINC up again You should have a couple of messages in the startup about config: and it should use both GPUs Are you using the standard driver, or the one downloaded from nVidia? For full CUDA performance use the last nVidia-supplied driver for your card. ID: 8210 · Rating: 0 · rate: /
