Dual GPU Question

[JimboPalmer]

Click on the Molecule in the lower right of the screen (In the taskbar)

A menu should pop up, you want Advanced Control, in the upper left is Configure

That pulls up a menu where you want Slots
In Slots, Edit the CPU slot, type 12 for the number of CPUs

I found that after I posted. Thanks

At one time, FAH did a study to see if BOINC and FAH could be integrated into some common management software. After considerable study, it was determined NOT to release that product from beta testing. The fundamental reason was the fact that there are major differences in the philosophy guiding two different sets of concepts associated with the words "priority" and "due dates" This lead the study to conclude that sharing resources between the two was essentially impossible.

(I can explain in more detail, but it would probably just be boring information.) One such fundamental difference is that BOINC will credit you with completing a WU after it passes the deadline; FAH will dump the results and the credit.

I recommend you decide to dedicate one GPU to FAH and the other to BOINC if that's possible ... consistent with your personal goals ... which means they're not really competing with each other for resources.

Yeah I noticed that. I understand the logic. Plus from the looks of it, they have more differences than what you describe.
For now, everything works well. This gets my 650 to get more work. If BOINC doesn't use it all, then FAH can have the full gpu.
I am not even tapping the full memory load yet on the cards, so they are more than capable of handling both projects simultaneously.
The GPU's are not ever really "warm" either. 120 and 135F Fans at 36-40% and memory is only 31% at the highest so far with random checking. So still lots of room for projects to do their thing.

I would use GPU-Z to judge how busy the GPUs are

You switch GPUs in the lower left, as I recall. (corrected, thanks)

I am using CPUID HWMonitor.
Comparing the values, they are the same, other than GPU load is a few points less.
HW Monitor is much more detailed in what it can show from the GPU card.

And switch location on GPUZ or CPUZ is lower left. (close)
