What i don't want is to crunch with my CPU something that is available for GPU. I want to use my CPU when it's the only supported one. Can you guys clarify how does it work on this project?

This project is CPU only since a while, as you can see on the applications page, there are no applications for GPUs. ID: 76457 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

You are not the only one, they should have either hidden those options as long as there are no GPU apps or add a warning, that there are currently no apps in case they want to keep those options for future use.
