Power BI GPU vs CPU

[Anonymous]

Hello!

This may be a simple question but I don't know much about processors. Will DAX calculations be sped up with the presence of a GPU as opposed to just a CPU? Is there a way to force calculations to use the GPU?

Thanks in advance!

hi, @Anonymous

Dax calculation is based on VertiPaq Engine. and Its efficiency depends on:

1. CPU Clock and Model
2. Memory Speed
3. Number of Cores
4. Memory Size

Thank you @v-lili6-msft! I take this to mean that the presence of a GPU will not affect performance
