GPGPU acceleration

zhaque · May 14, 2018, 00:14

Hello,

I am using ANSYS 15.0.

My computer specs are i5 3470 with 16 GB Ram.

I also have AMD Radeon HD 6670 Graphics Card on my Computer.

I know that ANSYS 15.0 supports some NVIDIA Cards. My question is can I use my card to accelerate my calculations?

and If yes! then HOW?

Fluent only supports CUDA cards, which means Nvidia only.
Also the AMD Radeon HD 6670 doesn't support any DP calculations. So even if there were not any driver issues, it still would not run at all (so forget about acceleration).
