We also run on GTX series cards (980s and 770s) and GPU-equipped MacBook Pros. We have not encountered any trouble in-house with devices with CUDA capability >= 3.0. All reported hardware issues thus-far have been due to GPU configuration, overheating, and the like. -**CUDA compute capability**: devices with compute capability <= 2.0 may have to reduce CUDA thread numbers and batch sizes due to hardware constraints. Your mileage may vary. +**CUDA compute capability**: devices with compute capability <= 2.0 may have to reduce CUDA thread numbers and batch sizes due to hardware constraints. Brew with caution; we recommend compute capbility >= 3.0. Once installed, check your times against our [reference performance numbers](performance_hardware.html) to make sure everything is configured properly.
