Changes in version 2.7c (since 2.6):
    * Supports AMD Vega, 580/570/480/470, 460/560, Fury, 390/290 and older AMD GPUs with enough VRAM

    sigh,,,,,,

    But it only supports compute 3.0 or higher Nvidia cards. Meanwhile ethminer, and other crypto apps support older Tesla cards from the c2050, m2050, and s2050 Fermi cored which haul ass still compared to some of the GTX series..  I have some 6GB and 3GB Teslas that still run well for CUDA 6.5 or higher.
     
    Why is it when developers crank out a new and improved version they kill off support for the hardware that got the game started a while ago?
    ccminer and a few others still have the source code or compiled archived versions out there.

    Is there a previous version of PhoenixMiner that will support the older Fermi based cards?
    The CUDA 9.1 dev kit can run on these cards.
