Hi all,
I would like to know how FStorm and CUDA are related to each other ?
The reason I'm asking has to do with long term support of rendering projects
- with each new NVIDIA graphics card series NVIDIA introduce a new CUDA version
for example:
Card
GeForce RTX 4090 -----> Compute Capability 8.9
GeForce RTX 3090 -----> Compute Capability 8.6
Geforce RTX 2080 Ti -----> Compute Capability 7.5
GeForce GTX 1080 Ti -----> Compute Capability 6.1
GeForce GTX 980 Ti -----> Compute Capability 5.2
- some Software which used a older CUDA version when released does not run on newer CUDA versions until the software itself has been updated to the latest CUDA version.
My specific questions:
- if I create a rendering project today and I render with a specific FStorm version
can this specific FStorm version run in a couple of years on a newer graphics card (with possibly higher CUDA compute version) ?
Simply said, a FStorm version which had been running with a GTX 1080Ti at time X is also able (same FStorm version) to run on a RTX 4090 ?
Thanks for feedback
Tim
