[Bf-cycles] Blender support for shader mdoel 6.0

[Thomas Dinges]

Hi,
we don't support nor build sm_60 kernels yet, but adding support for
this is pretty simple. Will handle it today.

You need a CUDA Toolkit which is capable of building sm_60 then
obviously, not sure the publicly available one supports it already?

Best regards,
Thomas
