Nvidia Cuda For Mac Os X Release



New Release 9.0.197. CUDA driver update to support CUDA Toolkit 9.0; Recommended CUDA version(s): CUDA 9.0; Supported MAC OS X. 10.12.x; An alternative method to download the latest CUDA driver is within Mac OS environment. New in Release 2.2: Support with MAC OS 10.5.7; Support with both Quadro FX 4800 for MAC and GeForce GTX 285.

NVIDIA® CUDA Toolkit 11.1 Update 1 no longer supports development or running applications on macOS. While there are no tools which use macOS as a target environment, NVIDIA is making macOS host versions of these tools that you can launch profiling and debugging sessions on supported target platforms.

You may download all these tools here. Note that the Nsight tools provide the ability to download these macOS host versions on their respective product pages.

Please visit each tool's overview page for more information about the tool and its supported target platforms.

The macOS host tools provided are:

  • Nsight Systems - a system profiler and timeline trace tool supporting Pascal and newer GPUs
  • Nsight Compute - a CUDA kernel profiler supporting Volta and new GPUs
  • Visual Profiler - a CUDA kernel and system profiler and timeline trace tool supporting older GPUs (see installation instructions, below)
  • cuda-gdb - a GPU and CPU CUDA application debugger (see installation instructions, below)

      Notes about JRE Requirements when using Visual Profiler on the macOS

        OpenJDK provides an open-source (and standards compliant) implementation of a Java compliant JVM.
        Binaries are provided by various vendors such as Oracle, Azul Systems (Zulu), Amazon, Red Hat, IBM, etc.
        Visual Profiler needs to use an older version of Java, specifically JRE update 151, to work correctly.
        This is currently not offered by Oracle JDK but is provided by Azul Systems (Zulu).
        The Bazel Build project also uses the Zulu builds of OpenJDK.
        Download JDK 8.0.144 to get JRE update 151:
          • Download version: 8u144-b01 (Zulu: 8.23.0.3) .dmg.zip.tar.gz
          • Download version: Zulu 8.23.0.3 (build 1.8.0_144-b01 .zip
