# XMR-Stak XMR-Stak has many internal commands that may be used when launching it. You may see those commands by typing `./xmr-stak --help` , and it will display all available commands to the screen. Out of these commands, the basic ones we recommend are --noCPU, --noAMD, and --noNVIDIA. The --noCPU tells xmr-stak to not use the CPU cores, as --noAMD tells it to not load AMD GPUs/drivers, and you probably guessed it, as --noNVIDIA tells it to not load NVIDIA GPUs/drivers for its mining. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
