CUDA version and updated installation instructions #785
Conversation
because in v9, For |
Btw, @nguyendc-systran mentioned that they will keep the support for CUDA 11 for a while, maybe they dropped that idea: |
We tried to support CUDA 12 and 11 but releasing 2 versions in parallel quite complicated to maintain. In the end, we decided to only support CUDA 12 but the Ctranslate2 source can always build with CUDA 11. |

Looks good.
May be alongside update ctranslate2 dependency to latest 4.2.0 because it supports flash attention as well as performance improvements for quantized models on CPU. |
@bil-ash this PR mainly contains updates to the installation instructions due to lack of CUDA 11 support in the latest versions of ctranslate2. Upgrading the ctranslate2 dependency would be beyond the scope of this particular PR I think. |
Is this good to go, @Purfview ? |
@sidharthrajaram FYI, I'm not a maintainer of this repo. |
