OK, ran v1.2 with GPU and it worked. It picked up my GTX770 but there was no real benefit. I was only getting an extra 40-50H/S more and my system was less stable. When I'm getting around 1000H/S from the CPU it made more sense to go back to v1.3 and just use the CPU.
I have seen people reporting speeds of 600MH/s from a GPU (
