## GUI Applications on Compute Nodes
Allocate the compute nodes using the `-X` option on the `qsub` command:
Allocate the compute nodes using the `--x11` option on the `salloc` command:
```console
$qsub -q qexp -lselect=2:ncpus=24 -X-I
$salloc -A PROJECT-ID -q qcpu_exp --x11
```
In this example, we allocate 2 nodes via qexp queue, interactively. We request X11 forwarding with the `-X` option. It will be possible to run the GUI enabled applications directly on the first compute node.
In this example, we allocate one node via qcpu_exp queue, interactively. We request X11 forwarding with the `--x11` option. It will be possible to run the GUI enabled applications directly on the first compute node.
For **better performance**, log on the allocated compute node via SSH, using the `-X` option.
```console
$ssh -Xr24u35n680
$ssh -Xcn245
```
In this example, we log on the r24u35n680 compute node, with the X11 forwarding enabled.
In this example, we log on the cn245 compute node, with the X11 forwarding enabled.
