Hello,

Have anyone tried any of the new Nvidia 5000 series card with Karma XPU, and got it working?`

Redshift had to add support for the new cards to work. Wondering if Karma XPU needs to do the same? I did not find anything in the changelog about added support, but maybe I'm blind.

Nvidia 5000 series means an ADA card I think.
The main feature that came with ADA was the "shader execution reordering" (ie SER) which KarmaXPU has support for in 20.5
SER gave a 1.5-2x speedup

Karma XPU optix will probably work then? and not fail to start? like Redshift?

Trying to get new cards, but kinda sad if Karma XPU optix fails when we get them.

do you mean geforce 5000 series, as in Blackwell? The RTX 5000 Ada has been out for a while now, but the RTX Pro 5000 Blackwell was just announced and isn't out yet as far as I know.

Apparently the term "5000 series" is a little loaded :/
It means either...
- RTX 5000 Ada
or
- Blackwell range (5090 etc...)

Either way, Karma XPU does not have the same issue as RedShift. It should work on Blackwell fine without any updates, etc.

Thanks for the replys.

RTX 5090 is the cards we are getting. Good to hear they will work
