| Goal / Interpretation of “latest” | Latest HPC SDK version that matches | Bundled CUDA toolchains (as stated in the sources) | Notes / Boundary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Latest NVHPC that does not bundle CUDA 13.0 | 25.7 | CUDA 11.8 + CUDA 12.9U1 | CUDA 13.0 bundling starts at 25.9 |
| First NVHPC that bundles CUDA 13.0 | 25.9 | CUDA 13.0 + CUDA 12.9U1 | Marks the transition to CUDA 13.0 in the bundle |
| Latest NVHPC that does not bundle CUDA 12 (i.e., last pre-CUDA-12 era) | 22.11 | CUDA 10.2 / 11.0 / 11.8 | CUDA 12 bundling begins at 23.1 |
| First NVHPC that bundles CUDA 12 | 23.1 | CUDA 12.0 (bundled/support introduced) | From here onward, the “no CUDA 12 bundled” condition is not met |
