Hi
Recently I had an issue with Corona when using Interactive Rendering, I had a second GPU that I wanted to test and it end causing blue screens when using IR. So with this I noted that Corona uses Intel GPU for Interactive, never really payed attention to it.
According to Vray Manual :
“The Intel Open Image denoiser works with your CPU device and does not use hardware acceleration.”
Does this still apply for both in latest releases in Production and Interactive?

EDIT: The devs checked the code and, actually, the Intel Denoiser uses the GPU if a compatible device is present; otherwise, it falls back to the CPU. I’ll notify the docs team to edit the passage - I guess it is outdated.
The docs have been updated.
