Can we GPU for normal opration?












1















Here is Thing.



I bought MSI laptop which is very good for Gaming.



I am doing some work on same laptop, which required for more processing power. MSI laptop has NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 1050 GPU 4GB card which dedicated for Graphic.



I know GPU is mostly used for Graphic stuffs and it is faster than CPU(which is intel's core I5 7th Gen).



But is there is any chance that I can use my GPU for my processing which is not related with Graphic.



Thanks :) ...

    It depends on the specifics of "my processing". Some jobs can be relegated to the GPU, but not others.
