Let me know if now the server is assigning the correct application: Cuda10.1 for old drivers Cuda11 for newer drivers GDF ID: 57990 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

GPUs are all GTX 1660: drivers are 470.82 (Linux), 472.12 (Windows) ID: 57994 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Open the coproc_info.xml file in the BOINC folder and look for the equivalent line as this: <opencl_platform_version>OpenCL 3.0 *CUDA 11.4.158*</opencl_platform_version> Or look at the beginning of the Event Log after BOINC restart for the gpu capability declaration.
