Hardware acceleration

EWSA provides hardware acceleration (i.e. runs much faster) on most modern NVIDIA and AMD video cards.

You can use NVIDIA GeForce or Quadro/Tesla cards. Full list of supported devices can be found here. If you have multiple cards, you need to disable SLI (either in driver or by physically disconnecting the cards). EWSA also supports acceleration with AMD Radeon cards. Built-in Intel HD and Iris graphics is also supported.

Whether you have NVIDIA or AMD card to use with EWSA, you should also have the latest drivers installed. The program is guaranteed to work with up to 8 devices, though may work (by design) with larger systems.
