Hi all,

is the new GeForce 8800 Ultra supported by CUDA?
2250 MHz Memory speed sounds promising.

NVIDIA has said before that all new cards will support CUDA. The Ultra is just a faster GTX card and there should be no reason that it won’t work nearly identically.

Hi,

thanks for your answer,
I know that NVidia stated before that all future cards will support CUDA. I am just afraid that the driver does not recognize the card because the card is newer than the driver. I don’t want to spend a lot of money now just to realize that I have to wait for the next CUDA release.

The upcoming prerelease is a matter of days and will come with a new driver fresh from the oven.

thanks a lot :-)

I’m sorry for being impatient, but I want to build a three GPU System, and my code for it is already finished (for testing currently running on one Card, alternating).

Could you please answer:
Is 8800 Ultra supported by CUDA 0.8 and driver 97.73?
Is 8800 Ultra supported by the upcoming release of CUDA?
Should I wait for the next CUDA release before ordering the System?

thanks a lot :-)

Can anybody answer quickly for the last questions of wslehrling?

It is supported in 0.9.

thanks a lot, system is ordered ;-)

I’m glad you got your answer. Now I am curious what hardware can support 3 of these monster cards. If you don’t mind sharing, could you please list the components that you are ordering?

I do not have the system yet, therefore I don’t know if the configuration is good / working at all.
When the system is here, I’ll give some results
