I want to know the detailed specification about my NVIDIA Quadro K2000 GPU. I want to know the number of SM, number of SP per SM. I have read several questions about it at SO but most of them are old, for example this, this and this.

Some people have said to run deviceQuery.exe and it will give the details about your GPU but I do not have any deviceQuery.exe available in my system (I have searched, checked the location suggested).

PS: I am using Windows-7, 64 bit.

  • From FAQ of the https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads Q: What is the difference between the Network Installer and the Local Installer? A: The Local Installer has all of the components embedded into it (toolkit, driver, samples). So you just need to install the Local installer and allow the samples to be installed – Iman Jul 20 '15 at 15:20
  • @Iman: Actually the Sample files were already there but the folder ProgramData was by default hidden and that is why, I was not able to search it. – skm Jul 20 '15 at 15:38

You can download the nVidia SDK from here and compile deviceQuery.exe by yourself. See the getting starded guide page 7

  • The page-7 says that the `deviceQuery.exe` is located at `C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\CUDA Samples\v7.0\bin\win64\Release ` but in my system, that path does not contain that `.exe` file. – skm Jul 20 '15 at 14:01

    You need to compile it by yourself. See page 9. – damienfrancois Jul 20 '15 at 14:05
  • @damienfrancois I see that this is old, but I do not see any instructions to compile on Page 9, just saying that the files should be there. – penelope Mar 06 '17 at 13:37

The CUDA Samples are not shipped as pre-built binaries. So, we need to compile it ourself.

I have used Visual Studio-2012 to build Samples.sln present in C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\CUDA Samples\v7.0.

UPDATE: I would also like to add here that by default, the CUDA installer puts the Sample files in C:\ProgramData...... but some time the folder ProgramData is hidden and that's why I was not able to search the sample files at my system. So, you need to unhide ProgramData folder to find the Sample files of CUDA.

  • @talonmies: Changed the sentence. Btw, the previous sentence was written at `dev talks` of CUDA forum. – skm Jul 20 '15 at 15:28
  • Every version of CUDA I was using came with binaries for all samples (versions 5.5 - 7.5RC on Windows platform). – void_ptr Jul 20 '15 at 16:45
