Hello all,
Under Settings > Output > Advanced > GPU, I am to understand that this determines what GPU is responsible for encoding. My questions are as follows:
• On a multi-card system, how do you know what number your card is?
• Is the number determined in your BIOS, or is this set somewhere else?
I am currently playing and streaming from the same PC, and want to ensure that the more powerful of the 2 cards are being used for this. I am attempting to use the NVENC H.264 method, and would want to make sure that the card with the most resources does the encoding. My cards are an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti (this runs 2 out of the 3 monitors on my system as secondary screens) and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 (Main screen used for all games).
So any help identifying which card is assigned to what GPU number would be greatly appreciated, as the numbers go from 0-8 select-able. Or, if it wont matter for some reason, that will work too, but I would appreciate the reasoning why, just purely to educate myself.
Thanks for your time,
Pherix
