Hello,
I am interested in the GT440 card, I know that has a GF108 GPU, that means that has a Compute capability of 2.1.
CUDA (or Compute Unified Device Architecture) is a parallel computing platform and application programming interface (API) that allows software to use certain types of graphics processing units (GPUs) for general purpose processing, an approach called general-purpose computing on GPUs (GPGPU). CUDA is a software layer that gives direct access to the GPU's virtual instruction set and parallel computational elements, for the execution of compute kernels.
CUDA is designed to work with programming l...
It is strange because in the official NVIDIA webpage says that has 1.0.
http://www.nvidia.com/object/cuda_gpus.html
I would like to know the compute cabability of the device.
Thank you.
Wow, it looks like there is a whole segment of GeForce GPUs listed around the GT 440 that are wrong on the NVIDIA page. I don’t have a GT 440, so I can’t fire up device query to check directly, unfortunately.

Ok, I hope someone could help me, thanks for the response.
There are several reports in the net showing that BOINC identifies GT 430 as having compute capability 2.1. GT 440 is the same chip, so it should be cc 2.1 too. NVIDIA web site is wrong.

Hello,
I think the same but I would like to confirm this theory, now I am sure.
Thank you for your reply.
