NVIDIA Nsight Software

  1. I noticed the supported GPU list for NVIDIA Nsight does not include GPUs in the 8 series:
    https://developer.nvidia.com/nsight-visual-studio-edition-supported-gpus-full-list

Why is this the case?

I have a GTX850M on my laptop, does this mean I can’t debug CUDA programs using an IDE? Am I limited to the command line cuda-gdb debugger?

  1. Is it possible to debug on a single system with Optimus technology if only one GPU is NVIDIA and the other Intel (not on the supported GPU list)?

The list isn’t constantly updated. Your GPU should be supported in the latest version of nsight VSE.

You can debug on a single NVIDIA GPU system.
