GPU Only Processing

You can choose to not receive work for your CPU. You would do this if you only wanted to run World Community Grid on your GPU. You can set this option by going to My Grid -> Device Manager -> Device Profiles and select the profile you want to customize. Within the profile, select 'Custom Profile'. On this screen go to the "Processor Usage" section and set the option "Allow research to run on my CPU?" to "No". (Note: At this time we only have limited work available for GPU processing. If set your profile to not receive work for your CPU, then little to no work will be sent.)

This morning I tried, for the first ime, to change this to GPU only. I set use CPU to "No" and when I save the change it reverts to "Yes". Tried multiple times with same result. confused

Re: GPU Only Processing

OK, it gets more strange. Even though the setting changes back to "Yes", the option seems to be working. Now I don't know if my "Yes" is "Yes" or my "Yes" means "No". I do know I have 52 Wu's I did no want. beat up

Re: GPU Only Processing

My Ozzie English is non existant, but "... the option seems to be working." contradicts the "... I do know I have 52 Wu's I did no want.", unless you've not qualified those were GPU WU's ;P

Theoretically, if I set/save this option with No, nothing at all could come, when including a known good supplied science... work came instantly i.e. the default yes is always yes. :|

Re: GPU Only Processing

I have verified, at least for me, the option is NOT working. I had to opt out of all projects to get only GPU Beta's. I'll let the unwanted wu's complete. sad
