Optimizing GPU performance...

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Programming and Performance
1

Hallo Everyone,

I am a new GPU user. I wanna ask if there is any method of optimizing speed of any NVIDIA GPU (e.g. QUADRO FX 5800). I want to optimize GPU performance according to a specific application so that it consumes least power. For that, I will not always be using all the CUDA CORES. How can I use a specified number of CUDA CORES or other features so that least power consumption is achieved? Any help in this respect is highly appreciated.

If you want to save power because you will not fully utilize the CUDA device you have, you should buy a lower power device. CUDA gives you no control over hardware scheduling.
