How to Check Cuda Compute Capability?

How to Check Cuda Compute Capability?

I just playaround with open-source software called Meshroom.

One of it's processes called DepthMap gives an error: This program needs a CUDA-Enabled GPU (with at least compute capability 2.0).

On wikipedia () I read that my video card: GeForce GT 650M has the compute capablility 3.0.

Can I check the CUDA Compute Capability?

Is there something I missed? Or it should be bug in the Meshroom software?

GPU-z will tell you everything about your card.

Under the Advanced tab is a dropdown for CUDA which will tell you exactly what your card supports:

It does sound like a bug though, the Geforce 600 series Wikipedia page also states CUDA 3.0 support.

Your card (GeForce GT 650M) has cuda capability 3.0.

This is the official page which lists all modern cards and their CUDA capability numbers:

Try deviceQuery executable in C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\vX.Y\extras\demo_suite, following a hint at the NVIDIA developer forum:

> Detected 1 CUDA Capable device(s)
> 
> Device 0: "**GeForce GT 710**"
>   CUDA Driver Version / Runtime Version          11.0 / 11.0
>   CUDA Capability Major/Minor version number:    3.5
>   Total amount of global memory:                 2048 MBytes (2147483648 bytes)
>   ( 1) Multiprocessors, (192) CUDA Cores/MP:     192 CUDA Cores

Thus, my CUDA Compute Capability is 3.5.
