CUDA-supported GPU

As discussed earlier, CUDA architecture is only supported on NVIDIA GPUs. It is not supported on other GPUs such as AMD and Intel. Almost all GPUs developed by NVIDIA in the last decade support CUDA architecture and can be used to develop and execute CUDA applications. A detailed list of CUDA-supported GPUs can be found on the NVIDIA website: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus. If you can find your GPU in this list, you will be able to run CUDA applications on your PC.

If you don't know which GPU is on your PC, then you can find it by following these steps:

• On windows:
  1. In the Start menu, type device manager and press Enter.
  2. In the device manager, expand the display adaptors. There, you will find the name of your NVIDIA GPU.
•  On Linux:
  1. Open Terminal.
  2. Run sudo lshw -C video. 

This will list information regarding your graphics card, usually including its make and model.

• On macOS:
  1. Go to the Apple Menu | About this Mac | More info. 
  2. Select Graphics/Displays under Contents list. There, you will find the name of your NVIDIA GPU.

If you have a CUDA-enabled GPU, then you are good to proceed to the next step.
