Title: Cuda 9 is here :) Post by: Miner4ever on August 04, 2017, 02:08:23 PM Today, NVIDIA released the CUDA 9 Release Candidate (RC), the fastest accelerated computing platform for HPC and Deep Learning applications.
Release Highlights: • Faster libraries: 2X - 5X faster libraries including cuBLAS, cuFFT and NPP • Cooperative Groups: New programming model with high-performance APIs and primitives for thread management • NVIDIA Volta: Supports the next generation of NVIDIA GPUs Title: Re: Cuda 9 is here :) Post by: NameTaken on August 04, 2017, 02:11:09 PM Need developer membership to download.

yes... sm_61 is an emulation of sm_60 P100 fp16 stuff, and when used (look like it is sometimes) its slower than normal ops generated for sm_5x ... So nothing changed for the GTX (and mining cards) about that since CUDA 8 Title: Re: Cuda 9 is here :) Post by: Bibi187 on August 04, 2017, 09:46:34 PM This release is prolly for Volta implementation, nvidia like to give fresh and working driver with a released new card. Every one speak about AMD vegas i think nvidia will do better, less power / more efficienty / more hashrate

Hopefully we will see SOME increase... once its released to the public. Title: Re: Cuda 9 is here :) Post by: jezus on August 05, 2017, 06:18:38 AM Cuda is here but not yet gpu.

I could not find anything. 2018, so don't worry about it now, but it's true that volta will be a monster, nothing like the change from maxwell to pascal |
