Hi all,

does anyone know when NVIDIA will be providing GPUs fully IEEE-754 compliant
either in

  1. single-precision
  2. or double-precision

in CUDA 0.8 release documents there was some mention that this will be available with TESLA, but its not the case if my understanding is correct.

Thanks

Tesla cards comply with most of IEEE-754 standard for single precision, check the programming guide for all the details. Are you sure you need 100% compliance? The majority of modern architectures are not fully compliant.

Double-precision is not supported by current hardware.

We will be releasing GPUs that support double precision in 2008.
