Doesn't the Dell Vostro 3910 series offers desktops based on Intel processors with on-board graphics capabilities? Isn't possible for you to add any additional discrete graphics card compatible with its motherboard and its power supply unit?It is the only graphics card in the computer and I'm not sure that it can, since it is not a separate GPU card
I just installed CUDA to my laptop with 4GB RTX3050Ti . Everything work well, except running StarXterminator with AI11 , no problem with AI 11 lite. Did you get the same problem?RT-
I followed your instructions above on instaling CUDA for PixInsight on my Dell Vostra 15-7510 with two display adapters: Intel UHD Graphics and NVIDIA GeForce RTX3050 Laptop GPU, assuming it would use the second GPU. I get very good times for CUDA BXT:24s, NXT: 12s, StarXT: 20s but the attachment shows that the Windows 10 Task Manager Performance Window, snapped while BXT was running, does not show any CUDA window as you show in your testing instructions. It shows instead that the two GPU's with more usage on GPU 0 (Intel UHD) than on the GPU 1 (NVIDIA GeForce RTZ3050 Laptop GPU). I am getting very fast times but its not clear to me that CUDA was even installed. But these times are so fast on this machine, its not clear that I'd get much benefit from CUDA if it is not running.
Any advice?

Yes, I had the same problem and discussed that with the author. That's why he generated the AI11 Lite version.I just installed CUDA to my laptop with 4GB RTX3050Ti . Everything work well, except running StarXterminator with AI11 , no problem with AI 11 lite. Did you get the same problem?

Works like magic. NoiseXterminator took minutes before I enabled this, now it is finished like in 10 seconds.All instructions for Pixinsight CUDA acceleration I've seen are too old to cover the latest generation of GPUs, so I wrote a tutorial. This should work on anything from GTX900 to RTX4000-series.
Even if you already got it to work using an older version of CUDA, it's a worthwhile update that will give a hefty speed boost with some GPUs.

Newbie question, I am also considering a new desktop computer optimized for working with Pixinsight. What attributes are most important? More memory? More cores? Where is the marginal benefit in processing speed? Does the graphics card matter? I bought a Dell computer in 2017 which worked...pixinsight.com
