Multi-GPU selection not working reliably

Windows graphics settings fail to properly allocate application execution to specific GPUs when using multiple discrete cards without integrated graphics. Manual GPU assignment severely degrades performance (35-40 fps vs 150-170 fps).

“How do I get the GPU clock rate in CUDA 13? I updated CUDA to version 13. But it seems that [code] has changed. Instead of returning the [code] struct with [code] , it returns a mutilated version thereof with deprecated fields missing. [code] How do I get the clockRate from CUDA 13, now that NVidia has decided to remove these data members from the [code] struct? Edit: looking at the old 12.3 data struct, I noticed that the missing fields were deprecated.”

“Two discrete video cards performance issue I made a mistake of buying a mining gpu that has no video outputs (gpro x080), thinking I could save a lot of money and just use another GPU or an igpu to output a video signal. While it somewhat works, and even works sorta okay with an igpu (for most of the apps, not for all), on a system that has no igpu I have to use another gpu (gt710 in my case), and in this case it does not work. The windows menu (display settings -> graphics settings -> add execu”
