Stupid Intel Graphics question

[denim]

As I have not seen any, so I think I already know the answer, but will anything GPU wise, crunch on a Intel HD Graphics 2500?

Zombie created a thread that should answer that question ---> http://www.setiusa.us/showthread.php?4864-Projects-that-support-Intel-HD-GPU-crunching

Thanks denim.

I can write in this forum without being out of the subject for at least one hundred years.

I like this thread.

Here I am with my new hat.

I don't think that one goes into which Intel on-die GPU's support OpenCL. I thought there was one around here that did though. I'm not sure if the 2500 was ever supported for OpenCL. Most comments seem to imply HD4000 or better for that support, but there seems to be some indication on the Albert linked thread that suggests an HD2500 is at least seen by BOINC as a resource.

EDIT: Well. maybe there is still hope:

Seems to suggest the HD2500 may actually have support. And the Intel processors with OpenCL Support (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Intel_graphics_processing_units) does imply that the 2500 would be OpenCL 1.2 capable.

Now that you mention it, I believe you are correct. Sorry Demin.

Thanks for the replies guys. Would doing a driver update possibly help any?

For crunching on intel GPU, you should be using 1.2 drivers. I think it is windows only. And then you need to pick one of the projects that has intel gpu apps.

Thx JPM. I made that thread a sticky so we can all find it if need be.
