I suppose that NF is FP64-intense which is not friendly to NVIDIA cards. Am I right?

OK, I'll try.
By the way, my voltage limit is 1.0100V, which is way higher than 0.9V. Perhaps that's part of the reason: my CPU runs at 2.5GHz with about 0.7850V, but my GPU reaches the voltage limit. But from the top computers one can discover that GPU does have little advantage than CPU on NF.

The number is from GPU-Z so I suppose it's only the power from the GPU. Then I'll consider switching back to CPU-only tasks. The VRAM and its controller seems to consume a lot of power, about a half of the total GPU chip power draw. Thkx.

Yes. I see about 8x speedup on 4060 Laptop than the CPU when running 3 tasks in parallel, but with 60W power consumption. When on CPU, it only consumes 25W with 16 tasks in parallel. That's awkward because heterogeneous computing normally increases power efficiency by nearly a magnitude.

Sorry for being in UTC+8.

Besides, I don't see any energy efficiency increase when switching to GPU as expected. Is that normal?

I don't quite think so, because the GPU temperature don't even reach 80℃. Besides, each time the anti blue light settings fail too.
Still, I notice that such situation sometimes happen immediately after I change app_config.xml. I'm not sure if previous crashes are the same.

The day before yesterday I tried the NV GPU tasks instead of CPU tasks, but problems arise:
From time to time the screen crash to completely black for a second and when the system tried to recover the desktop, all jobs currently running fail (in appconfig I set multitasking on GPU), including these not from NF. And the power, frequency and voltage settings on the GPU are reset to default. It's really bothering!
The environment: Win11 Home, 4060 Laptop, 13500H.
Besides, originally I set the GPU overclock by 225 MHz. Apparently NF cannot afford such overclocking and always fail(I'm wondering why EAH and Asteroids no not). Now I set 168 MHz and it doesn't fail so much, but still a little. Is that relavent?
