Deprecation of CUDA 11.6 and Python 3.7 Support

By February 2, 2023November 14th, 2024No Comments

For the upcoming PyTorch 2.0 feature release (target March 2023), we will target CUDA 11.7 as the stable version and CUDA 11.8 as the experimental version of CUDA and Python >=3.8, <=3.11.

If you are still using or depending on CUDA 11.6 or Python 3.7 builds, we strongly recommend moving to at least CUDA 11.7 and Python 3.8, as it would be the minimum versions required for PyTorch 2.0.

Please note that as of Feb 1, CUDA 11.6 and Python 3.7 are no longer included in the nightlies

Please refer to the Release Compatibility Matrix for PyTorch releases:
