lower performance with CUDA toolkit - powermi - 09-22-2020

Hi, I was getting some advice messages on a system with a RTX 2060 about CUDA toolkit not being installed.
I installed it and using -m 22000 -b I noticed a drip of around 20kh/s.
Should I keep CUDA installed for any other reason even if I have a drop in the hashes/s?
Thanks

probably depends on the driver not on the CUDA toolkit.

hint: you can install CUDA without replacing the driver... that's also what most users/devs do... just install the CUDA toolkit and keep the most current driver without replacing it with the one shipped by the CUDA toolkit

Thanks, then I'll do this and will benchmark all of different hashes for comparing CUDA vs Non CUDA.
