It's in the folder ...\projects\www.worldcommunitygrid.org Did you have tasks in cache when you put the app_info file into the projects folder?

Seems it is working for me 4x GPU + 4x GFAM. Thanks Bearcat and NI! Edit to add: GPU task is finishing in 3 mins when running only one and 7.25 mins when running 4 concurrent.

Thank you, Bearcat!!!
----------------------------------------My HD6790 is now running two tasks on HCC, elapsed time 7m30s as opposed to one in about 5:30. I will test further..... Thanks, again all who contributed to this solution! John crunching, crunching, crunching. AMD Ryzen 5 2600 6-core Processor with Windows 11 64 Pro.

@flodisar, I tried using the HCC GPU + HCC app_info from the XS forum, but I couldn't get it to work. I just got a bunch of error messages and BOINC telling that it didn't need to download new files. So I have to see if I did something wrong. About HFCC, jspace at the XS forum said he's working on this app_info. Maybe he can help out? If your 7770 is idling most of the time and you have been using it to run the WCG GPU app there is something wrong with your settings. OK, are there any settings I can change to improve this? I didn't change anything exept for the one to make the GPU crunch while the PC is in use. It is now set to do GPU work all the time. I'll try to describe the situation. When I have a HCC GPU workunit, the CPU uses about 30 seconds before the GPU 'kicks in'. The GPU then completes the workunit in a little under a minute and then the CPU has to finish the workunit for another minute. So roughly said the GPU is used for about 1 minute and is idling for about 1:30 minute because it's waiting for the CPU starting and finishing the workunit. And when the GPU is in use, the load never exceeds 85%. Any toughts on what I can do to improve the load and have less idling time? It's an old i7-920 using 8 threads, and I really would like to use the remaining threads for CPU work... @depriens, thanks, yes I notices jspace wrote he would be looking at an HFCC app_info. Haven't seen one yet though.... The reason I want it is I would like to reach sapphire on HFCC, but I do not want to sacrifice GPU computing down to a just a single task at a time. At the moment I am running 6 GPU tasks in parallel on my HD7970 (upped it from four today). Seems to be working, will have to wait for stats to udate to see if made any difference in output capacity. When all six tasks are running on GPU I have a utilization of ~96%. And that is an HD7970 running at 1160MHz core and 7000MHz RAM. Do you guys and gals believe there is a point in increasing even more to 8 or 10 parallel GPU tasks?
