Question guys - why is FAH using my integrated graphics (GFX1036) to fold when I selected my 9070 XT (GFX1201) to fold and it literally says "GFX1201" on my FAH web page?
I'm using GPU driver version 26.3.1 after 26.5.2 kept returning memory errors, see here (

The client sometimes (all the time) gets confused of which GPU is being displayed to be used for FAH. Check Adrenalin Control panel Performance tab to see if your 9070 (gfx1201) is being loaded. If it is, ignore that log snippet

It's also a good idea to disable iGPU in BIOS settings if you are not using it.

I would think that's true ... but task manager is reading near zip on the 9070 XT...

You may be looking at the wrong stat. I think it’s Compute 0 that shows use.

Why did you ignore my comment about you checking Adrenalin Control Panel for GPU usage and went for the crappiest way of checking GPU loads?

No, it is Adrenalin Control Center Performance tab, or GPU Z.
People should be discouraged from using Microslop's broken tools
