That can't be right. AFAIK, with OpenCL, a single app should be able to use an ATI and an nVidia GPU *at the same time*. I assume there is a single OpenCL library where functions like "get list of devices" or "tell processor to compute this" are implemented, and those functions work by calling device-specific libraries/backends/drivers/<whatever they call it>. Similar to how there is only one opengl32.dll written by Microsoft, and multiple possible GPU-specific implementations available as separate DLLs and installed with the graphics driver. -- Nicolas _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
