I’ve used DGX A100 with Ubuntu 20.04

Is DGX A100 available for real time rendering or not?
I coudln’t connect a program to render on A100.

I used this command below to render a program. But It doesn’t work and only works on default graphic card not an A100.

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 ./Build.x86_64

Thank you.

Hello @tu.shin and welcome to the NVIDIA developer forums.

By default DGX A100 only works as a compute GPU.

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 ./Build.x86_64

The above CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 only means that you do NOT use any GPU for CUDA operations. I don’t know what the last part means.

Hi, the A100 and H100 GPUs in our DGX systems, do NOT have any Raytrace cores. They are GPUs optimized for compute, as that don’t feature those RT cores, essential for doing real time rendering… so we don’t productize A100/H100 for gfx tasks at all…
