Hi,
Is anyone running an Nvidia card on a CPU that does not support POPCNT? I have been reading about Blue Screens of Death being experience by Windows users due to Nvidia drivers not supporting CPUs which do not have support for POPCNT. I am wondering if this issue will affect Linux users too?. Particularly those who use the Nvidia proprietary drivers. I do not know if Nouveau drivers will require POPCNT. https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5554 EOL Windows driver support for older CPUs without POPCNT instruction Updated 06/25/2024 03:05 PM To check for POPCNT support in Linux I used: $ grep popcnt /proc/cpuinfo and/or $ lscpu | grep popcnt For my CPU it returned the relevant values of "sse4_2" "popcnt".
