Hello
I want to try cuda in blender
I'm using  nvidia 390  driver and asking if it works or not or i need specific version of cuda to work with this driver?

Re: [SOLVED]Does cude works with older nvidia drivers

pacman -Ql nvidia-390xx-utils| grep -i cuda

Also https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/opencl-nvidia-390xx
Whether bleder (still) supports your specific GPU, you'll have to try.

Re: [SOLVED]Does cude works with older nvidia drivers

Thanks for your reply 
after doing some research found out my card cuda compute capability is 2.1
while blender required 3.0
 

[halano@archlinux ~]$ pacman -Ql nvidia-390xx-utils| grep -i cuda
nvidia-390xx-utils /usr/bin/nvidia-cuda-mps-control
nvidia-390xx-utils /usr/bin/nvidia-cuda-mps-server
nvidia-390xx-utils /usr/lib/libcuda.so
nvidia-390xx-utils /usr/lib/libcuda.so.1
nvidia-390xx-utils /usr/lib/libcuda.so.390.157
nvidia-390xx-utils /usr/share/man/man1/nvidia-cuda-mps-control.1.gz
 

I go intel arc with oneAPI for my next rig.
