    It allows the uefi to put card bios in 64bit memory above 4GB.

    Roger, seems it doesn't bring any benefits when using only 1 GPU?

    Correct. Just extra bios access addresses.

    It's intended for use on rigs that have a LOT of GPUs in them - not aimed at 1 or even 2 GPU rigs at all.
     

    Now that vorsholk has stopped his abuse, I'm returning to folding.
     I no longer MOO due to abuses by certain "whales" in the Gridcoin community - so I now work the Distributed.net project directly again.
