Why CPU is faster then NVIDIA GeForce 740?

Hey, I've recently started developing program under OpenCL and created Kernel and it's executed corretly, but somehow calculations made by my Intel CPU are faster then same one made by my grafic card...

Any architecture (CPU, GPU or FPGA) has coding style guidelines that impact performance; it is not surprising to get bad performance when these guidelines are not followed.

However, this forum is for Altera's OpenCL compiler; I can help you with optimizing your code for the Altera FPGAs. For GPU optimizations, please refer to NVIDIA's forum.
