How do I adjust the setting to run 2 wus, 1 on each card. Thanks for any advice. ID: 1238 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Now a 2nd wu started but stopped in less than a minute and says "waiting for memory". My memory settings are 90% of memory regardless of computer being or nor being in use. Any ideas on solving this?

Hi AT Hiker, Your computer has 16GB RAM so you are able to run a single GPU task only. You will require 24GB to run 2 tasks and 8GB more for each additional GPU task you run. This is because each task uses 8GB system RAM and your system will be using a few GB during normal operation, along with usage from other programs you may open.
