OPNG uses a different pipeline for work units from the researchers. So all GPU work units will come from OPNG and cpu will be under OPN1. This is helpful for 2 reasons:

1. It allows us to easily distinguish which workunit a member is discussing about
2. Allows the researchers to put more difficult tasks into the GPU queue when they get to those.



The minimum requirement is that your computer has a GPU that can run OpenCL 1.2. However, there are some cards that still have issues even though they claim to be able to handle them.

Also, please check your device profile settings to make sure that you allow GPU work on the graphics cards your machines support. You can check the top of your event log to see what graphics cards BOINC recognizes on your machine.



I do mean work units. This should equate to about 200 batches per day.

I have the OPNG on both a GTX 1650 Super (Win10) and GTX 1060 (Ubuntu 20.04.2). As uplinger indicated, there is a limited supply.

What I'm seeing is I got some NVIDIA jobs and then they stopped coming but still seeing Intel and AMD jobs arrive, my guess is due to the limited number of GPU jobs / hour (see above) and prevalence of NVIDIA cards amongst contributors they get processed real fast so you need to wait for the next batch, see if you get any in next few days before concluding anything is wrong.

BOINC manager also reports, that tasks for Intel GPUs are available that my settings do not allow them. We just gotta be patient. Hopefully, the task difficulty gets increased, so that the "dry spells" in between the 30 min work distribution periods don't get too long.
