The NVIDIA Developer Tools team is proud to announce the final releaseNVIDIA nsight development platform, Visual Studio edition 3.0, An application development platform for heterogeneous systems. This new release officially supportsOpenGLFrame debugging and profiling,GlslGPU shader debugging, local single GPU shader debugging, the newKepler gk110 ArchitectureFound in Tesla k20 & geforce GTX Titan, andCuda 5.0.
This release requiresNVIDIA display driver release 319 or newer.

Highlights of the new nsight Visual Studio edition 3.0 features:
• SupportOpenGL 4.2For frame debugging, pixel history and frame profiling.
• Support for OpenGLGlslGPU shader debugging.
•Glsl 3.3And higher applications are supported on a remote debugging setup.
•Glsl 4.2Core applications are supported on a local debugging setup.
• Local, single GPU shader debugging and pixel history is now supported for HLSL
And glsl.
• Support forCuda 5.0Toolkit.
• Support forKepler gk110Architecture (for example, found in the Tesla k20
& Geforce GTX Titan ).
• Cuda dynamic parallelism is now supported when building, debugging, and running
Analysis. For more information, see Cuda dynamic parallelism.
• Attaching to a Cuda application during a kernel launch is now supported. attachable
Programs will raise an attach dialog if a GPU assert or exception occurs.
• New Cuda source-level experiments allow you to correlate profiling data to individual
Kernel source code lines, supporting CUDA-C, PTX, and sass assembly.
• Support for hardware debugging of C ++ amp applications directly on nvidia hardware.
• Faster more improvements and new features. Learn more
A new version of NVIDIA perfkit, a suite of performance tools to help debug and profile OpenGL, direct3d and Cuda applications, is also available on the NVIDIA perfkit page.
We encourage all users to send feedback and report issues at the nsight Visual Studio edition forums or within the nsight Visual Studio edition registered Developer Program to help improve the quality of the software for future releases.
