    Hello everybody!

    I have a desktop based on AMD A10-7860k and a Nano-graphics-card running windows 10.

    What to do for running only one GPU-task and three CPU-tasks parallel by local settings? I've read in the forum, that an xml-file has to be created in the BOINC folder. But I don't know how to do (write) it.

    If anybody has useful tips for the best available and working driver, I would be very grateful.

    Thanks a lot!

      I don't think an app_config.xml is necessary in this case. Look at the GPU tasks that you already have. If they require "x CPUs + 1 AMD GPU" with x less than one, all you need to do is set your client to "use at most 75% of the CPUs" and you should be done.

        I found in another thread, the use of the preference sets by the website (host overview).
