Some help please?

Post by Norm!24 »

Hi I have a Nvidia 8800GT(driver 21.21.13.4201) running on Win10 1909. The CPU is running happily but the GPU just shows as ready with no activity. I'm new to this and wondering is the Graphics card just too old?
Thanks Norm!24

FAH supports Fermi or better. Your Tesla is too old.

Okay Bruce thanks. Is Tesla equivalent then to the GeForce type?

I suppose it’s a bit much to expect from a 2007 card!

Tesla, Fermi, Kepler, Maxwell, Pascal, Turing/Volta, Ampere ... are successive names for NVidia's microarchitectures
