I have an: Intel® Celeron® CPU J1900 + Intel® HD Graphics [iGPU] With: Win8.1 x64 <stderr_txt> No NVIDIA library found No ATI library found. Does this mean the WUProp app detect the Intel® iGPU and all the project apps/tasks which will be calculated on it? Thanks.

Your J1900's iGPU cannot be used for Open CL/GL; it's a basic display GPU only and isn't powerful enough to crunch on. It's a 10W Celeron so while it's a functional CPU and useful to crunch with, don't expect powerful CPU performances either; tasks will take much longer than on mid-range and high end CPU's |

The iGPU of the J1900 (Quad-Core CPU) have 2 compute units. I crunch very well SETI@home v7 and AstroPulse v7 (both OpenCL apps) projects tasks on it. The performance is like a 5th CPU-thread. Does the WUProp@Home app detect the apps/project tasks which crunch on it? BTW. There are very much Intel® iGPU's at the SETI@home project ... If the currently WUProp@Home app don't detect ... - if in future yes, I wouldn't be the only one who would 'benefit' from it. Maybe there are more BOINC projects with Intel® iGPU OpenCL project apps? Thanks.

The iGPU of the J1900 (Quad-Core CPU) have 2 compute units. WUProp detects the Boinc apps that are running. Boinc detects the hardware via the system and drivers. You can see your systems overview and details here, http://wuprop.boinc-af.org/hosts_user.php?userid=523 http://wuprop.boinc-af.org/show_host_detail.php?hostid=79951 I wasn't aware that processor could be used to crunch OpenCL apps on, but apparently the 7th generation models are OpenGL 4.0 capable and OpenCL 1.2. I think the requirements are Gen 7 graphics and up, so OpenGL 4.0 or better and the CPU needs to be OpenCL capable too. HD 2000 and 3000 can't work (not OpenCL capable), while HD2500 and HD4000 do work along with the basic HD version (just not the 5th generation graphics as it's not OpenCL capable). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_HD_and_Iris_Graphics#Capabilities For most Intel iGPU's, that are both OpenGL and OpenCL capable, the iGPU performances vary from about that of a CPU thread up to about half the CPU's cores. Sometimes they are worth crunching on, sometimes not; doing so impedes other tasks. |

I hope the WUProp@Home app detect Intel® iGPU apps/WUs. Now I get (like mentioned above): <stderr_txt> No NVIDIA library found No ATI library found. In past - IIRC - with the other PC, with GTX285 I didn't got something like: <stderr_txt> No Intel(R) library found No ATI library found. In the Intel_driver_Installation_Readme_(64-bit).txt which you get with the Lunatics Installer (optimized project applications for SETI@home): Microsoft Windows 7 64 Microsoft Windows 8 64 Microsoft Windows 8.1 64 [I use the x64 Installer because x64 OS, but I guess x86 OSs too] 4th Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) Processor Platform 4th Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) Processor U Series-based Platform 4th Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) Processor Y Series-based Platform 3rd Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) Processor Platform 3rd Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) Processor U Series-based Platform 3rd Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) Processor Y Series-based Platform Intel(R) Pentium(TM) Processor 2000/A1000/G2000/G2100 Series Intel(R) Celeron(TM) Processor 900/1000/G1000 Series Intel(R) Pentium(R) N3510/ 3520 Processor Intel(R) Celeron(R) N2810/ 2820 Processor Intel(R) Celeron(R) N2910/ 2920 Processor Intel(R) Celeron(R) N2805/ N2806 Processor Intel(R) Celeron(R) N2815 Processor Intel(R) Pentium(R) J2850/ J2900 Processor Intel(R) Celeron(R) J1850/ J1900 Processor Intel(R) Celeron(R) J1750/ J1800 Processor

I notice that the results page only lists GPUs that are ATI/AMD or nVidia... So perhaps it's just a limitation of the app at this time? I also have a lower-grade integrated Intel HD GPU (Atom) in my tablet, though I typically don't use it because getting it to charge while crunching BOINC is an uphill (sometimes nearly impossible) battle.
