This is no longer the case. Version 8 supports the 5000 series of Nvidia Geforce GPUs.

Which version of CUDA Toolkit is required for RIPx v8.0.3

Sealard — Fri, 15 May 2026 17:48:55 +0000

I'm about to take delivery of a msi geforce rtx 5060 ti 16g and have been reading through this forum for tips to prepare for the install.

I read that v11.0 of the CUDA Toolkit is required (2 year old topic), is this still the case with RIPx v8.0.3

The 5060 requires v12/13 of CUDA, can anyone advise what install steps I should take to help get RIPx to utilise the GPU? :)

@kallamamran It sounds like it's behaving correctly. There's a limit to how much of a GPU the machine learnt separation can take advantage of.

@dave I don't know what to expect. I get a few high bars on the GPU in the beginning, but the rest of the 10 minutes used ro rip the file it's only CPU being used. Shouldn't the GPU be used for ripping? Shouldn't that be way faster? Not a big problem, but still a conundrum

@kallamamran According to this information, GPU hardware acceleration is enabled. If you look in Task Manager, you should see the GPU being used during the instrument separation stage (before Ripper opens). Do you not see any usage at all when doing this?
