1. How to get CUDA installed and workin... How to get CUDA installed and working for a GTX 560 TI in Linux

   1

   # Nvidia GTX 560Ti CUDA install Linux.

   2

   Check and understand the compute version required of your GPU on Nvidia's website. (GTX 560 TI = 2.1) https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus#compute

   3

   Reference your compute version with the the CUDA toolkit documentation you wish to download. 

   4

   You can find the compute version that the toolkit offers in this page - 'Programming Guide' > 'I. Compute Capabilities'.
