Guild Wars 2

Hi, I’ve seen there is a launcher option for enabling CUDA acceleration in-game for nVidia cards.
We’ve seen other games use CUDA (or other forms of GPU computing – ID Soft’s Rage uses CUDA for texture transcoding, several other games use DirectCompute) for increasing performance.
What benefit does GW2 get (if any?) from enabling the “-cuda” option in the laucher? Has someone tested it more in-depth?

Thanks!

I’m curious about this as well.

It seems it does nothing.
For me, even -perf is not doing anything

I just tried the -cuda and -perf command lines and neither one seems to be working.

Unknown command line arguments
The following arguments are found in the client, but are either nonfunctional, unobservable effects or are part of future API development.

they tell you it probably wont work.

Anyone knows of a good GPU resource monitor that also shows CUDA thread count and usage?
