Posted: Mon Feb 02, 2026 9:11 am
Hello everyone and the F@H team,
I'm experiencing an issue where the Folding@home client (version 8.5) is not detecting or utilizing my laptop's dedicated GPU for computation. It only uses the CPU. I would greatly appreciate any guidance on how to resolve this.
Here are my system details and what I have observed:
Operating System: Windows 11 Pro
GPU (Primary): NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU(6GB)
NVIDIA Driver Version: 591.86(Game Ready)
F@H Client Version: 8.5.5
Interface Used: Web Client
