Good evening all,
I’m sorry if this is a dead horse, but for the life of me I’ve not been able to find a solution (despite finding reports of this issue from mid-2016). I have a GTX 1080. I’m trying to get my Cycles to render with GPU (part of a Udemy course lesson).
I’ve updated drivers, even downloaded and installed the most recent CUDA development kit. I have Blender 2.77.
I open a test blend file that works perfectly with CPU rendering. But I get the same “CUDA Binary Kernel for this graphics card compute capability (6.1) not found” error that I’ve seen other people report. I search for the fabled “kernel_sm_61” file that I’ve seen mentioned, nothing.
Is there a solution, or am I basically chasing a unicorn here?
