The support for older Nvidia-based GPUs using Compute 2/2.1 architecture (Fermi) has been dropped in the more recent versions of ccMiner in order to focus and improve performance on the newer Compute 3 and 3.5 (Kepler) as well as 5 (Maxwell) GPUs. It seems however there are still quite a few people that are using Fermi-based Nvidia graphic cards to mine crypto coins with, so this is something they may find useful. There is a
fork of ccMiner compiled with support for Compute 2.0/2.1 (Fermi) GPUs as well as the newer Comupte cards. To ensure support for Compute 2.x however the support for Jackpotcoin, Quark and Animecoin is not available as the code for these in ccMiner apparently requires at least Compute 3.0 support. This fork however adds Diamondcoin support that is not available in the original ccMiner release.
