Is my mac book pro suitable for CUDA?

Solution 1:

Your model has only the Intel HD 4000, so you can't use CUDA

Solution 2:

About dialog displays only the primary built-in device not the discrete, accelerated GPU. To be sure, run:

system_profiler SPDisplaysDataType

in the terminal.

On my mac, the About dialog shows only on-chip Intel device, but the above command reveals the detail, also telling me that my Mac is equipped with the AMD Radeon HD 6750M which is OpenCL 1.1 capable. My mac is year older then yours.

All MBP devices have two cards.
