minimum cpu cores?

Post by dschief »

First day back, after being idle for several years. the first box got up & running no problem, both boxes have same GPU
GTX 760 both downloaded gpu wu's & are running fine . first box has an i7 14700 K & it's crunching along.
the second box has an i5-4460. and is not getting anything to run. Is it a case of just no wu's for that weak a cpu and should I just kill it & run only
the GPU

the i5-4460 has 4 cores, 1 is driving the gpu, web page lists 3 cpu , so the cores are there. the question is are there any wu's
small enough to run on it ?

There should be. There might be shortage of WUs for such small core count from time to time, though
