Highlights

CUDA 11.1 Support

Support for CUDA 11.1 is added in #4184, with CUDA 11.1, GeForce RTX 30 series and Quadro RTX series can now be used in CuPy.

Notes on Wheel Packages

CuPy for CUDA 11.1 (cupy-cuda111) wheel packages are currently only available for Windows. We are going to publish Linux wheels once we get approval from the PyPI team. Meanwhile, Linux wheels can be downloaded from the Assets section below (or pip install cupy-cuda111 -f https://github.com/cupy/cupy/releases/tag/v9.0.0rc1).
