Such as running 4 projects simultaneously using 4 GPU cores in one machine? I personally am not familiar with the Linux system, and have very limited knowledge. Also, it would be very nice if someone can show what flavor of linux is best, and how to install it to a Bootable USB Thumb drive. ID: 1221 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

You should be able to use 4GPUs cores as long as you have a quad core CPU. If it does not work, we will fix it. The only known issue you have to deactivate SLI support. CUDA works only without SLI. We use Fedora for which you can get a bootable usb drive from the Fedora website. gdf ID: 1224 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
