11) Message boards : Graphics cards (GPUs) : Future use of integrated GPUs (Message 40239)
Posted 3352 days ago by Werkstatt
Whatever the AMD GPUs can run via OpenCL can possibly also run on Intel GPUs, if there are not show-stopping driver bugs. Sicne the current beta AMD app uses the GPU as co-processor for the CPU, the usual "GPU-Grid can only make good use of very fast GPUs" may not apply.

Actually, the integrated GPUs could have advantages over external ones if shared memory and quick communication between them and the CPU can be exploited.

MrS

Does that mean, that in the near future the Linux users see an advantage over the win users?
The new kernel 3.19 supports advanced features for AMD data transfer between CPU and GPU

Are there any plans of supporting integrated GPUs in the future? They are becoming quite powerful recently, and most of us running intel processors are stuck with them.


Integrated gpu's do not apply to intel only. I'm running an AMD A10 7700, most of the time 2 wu's at a time (sharing with one poem wu).

Can you direct me to the output of a job where a restart has happened please?


This http://www.gpugrid.net/workunit.php?wuid=10639347 wu was interrupted after ~ 10% progress by stopping BM. After restart of BM it began again with 0%.
Wu will be finished in ~ 1.5 hrs from now.


wu finished and validated.

The situation is different between
laptop an desktop pc
well developed app and beta app

Most posts refer to desktop pc's. It's usually no problem to run them @ 95% gpu load 7/24 and that's what people like to see. The beta app uses on my HD7770 not more than 55% regardless how many of the 4 cpu's are involved. This is why I try to run 2 wu's on the gpu. I would prefer to run two gpugrid app at a time but this is inhibited by system settings. So I try to run 2 different apps on the gpu which works fine now since 2 days.
The goals are different for Matt and the volunteers. Matt tryes to have a stable app and will try to optimize it later. I want my gpu's to run near 100%. You want to keep your notebook alive by limiting the temp.
