I have downloaded a bunch of wu's for the IntelGPU but they seem to get 20-30% in and then just stop. No errors, just like they are suspended. Nothing in the event logs that I can find... Should I just let them run? |

In short, using the iGPU actually slows down all CPU processing (due to cache thrashing) and you'll get better results by just using the CPU and the 1060. Basically the iGPU acts just like a boat anchor on the system which is why I don't use mine. Cheers. |

I have stopped using the GPU also....but when I tried to run it again....I get nothing but my 4 CPUs running...even after I have reset..... So will stick with not running as Wig suggested...:-) |
