hi, im really curious that gs does actually affect anything? Huh

gs defines together with the blocksize the number of threads to execute. Blocksize is calculated and you cannot change it.

hmm, still dont get it. it affect the lifespan of gpu or use more cpu & gpu resources with gs size?

Maybe I'm too bad in explaining. Please check this information:

There are much more - just try to google 'cuda grid block'. You will get lots of information about grid/block/threads and how they are related to each other in GPU kernel programming.

Hope the helps more!

OK I'm no rocket surgeon here Wink

If I have a 7 card rig with decent GPU's (1070ti's) with a low-end CPU (G4400 dual-core Pentium) ...
Should I focus on smaller gridsize (perhaps between 4096-8192)?

And if I had a better CPU, a larger gridsize may or should work better?
