### Add More GPUs
-To add a new GPU you need to add a new config set to `gpu_threads_conf` and increase `gpu_thread_num"` to the number of gpus (entries in `gpu_threads_conf`).
-`index` is the number of the gpu.
+To add a new GPU you need to add a new config set to `gpu_threads_conf`. `index` is the OpenCL index of the gpu.
+`platform_index`is the index of the OpenCL platform (Intel / AMD / Nvidia).
+If you are unsure of either GPU or platform index value, you can use `clinfo` tool that comes with AMD APP SDK to dump the values.
