Edit Question
Title
Body
I have a GeForce GTX 580, and I want to make a statement about the total number of threads that can (ideally) actually be run in parallel, to compare with 2 or 4 multi-core CPU's. deviceQuery gives me the following possibly relevant information: CUDA Capability Major/Minor version number: 2.0 (16) Multiprocessors x (32) CUDA Cores/MP: 512 CUDA Maximum number of threads per block: 1024 I think I heard that each CUDA core can run a warp in parallel, and that a warp is 32 threads. Would it be correct to say that the card can run 512*32 = 16384 threads in parallel then, or am I way off and the CUDA cores are somehow not really running in parallel?
