New Features

Overall

  • Additional settings added

Known Issues

CPU
  • BOINC doesn't stop if you toggle the CPU switch off while it is initially connecting to WCG. This causes inconsistencies in the UI. After the initialization phase (it finishes initial download and starts processing) then BOINC operates as expected.

GPU

  • Incompatible GPUs don't inform the end user, they just simply don't work.
  • Lacking any customization for multi-GPU machines
