The intel GPU app is not recognizing the GPU on the 6700k as a valid GPU. Not sure if this is intentional. It picks up other projects.

Be careful, though: as mentioned in this thread on "the last few pages", Skylake GPUs (yours) can run the beta tasks, but are expected to produce a high rate of invalid tasks. I've taken a look at the results of some short reference computation, and they differ vastly between Skylake and validating GPUs. So if a WU validates it was probably luck in the way that there was nothing to report, so the Skylake GPU reporting a "wrong nothing" didn't matter. It seems to be an Intel driver problem and two of us have tried to make Intel look into it, but without success. I fear it's going to be exactly the same for the upcoming Kaby Lake.
