I compiled my own.
VS 2017 community does not work.
VS 2013 community works.
I reinstalled cuda 8.0 after vs2013, it would not work if cuda is installed before, in my case after vs2017. It looks for whitelisted VS versions.
Debug build was default and broken for me (was too old compute model wise I believe given it kept running out of memory), choosing "release" "win32" from main window's drop down worked.
I get very close numbers , ~0.5% more than palgin with 1080 tis the way I run them. For me it was not worth the effort for the minor result improvement, I do prefer to use a binary I know is clean.
Can cuda 7.5 coexist with 8.0 installation? I can attempt that also.
