    I have returned for another folding fix ! ..
    Having been absent for quite a while
    But i need a little help.

    I am having troubles setting up my GPU Console. I always used the systray client before but now wanted to try the console out.

    I load it and setup no worries but i am missing an important step.

    When i install a second console with a different machine ID both clients appear to be running on one GPU ? ? ?

    Is there a -switch i am missing to run the second GPU in this machine ?

    Please dont make me have to load the systray client instead ..

    Thanx in advance .

    you mean -gpu x (where x is the gpu number, 0 for the 1st, 1 for the 2nd etc)

    Add "-gpu 0 -forcegpu nvidia_g80" on to your client. Install as many gpu console clients as you have gpus, and modify the "-gpu x" x number. 0 means the client is running on the gpu which is powering your main screen.

    FYI Ph4ZeD - you don't need to use the "-forcegpu nvidia_g80" any more :thumb:
