Hi Weigang,

It's not like recommending a card; rather, if you happen to have a data 
center card available (A100, A5000 etc.), you can circumvent this problem 
for now by using them. Otherwise, let's hope we find a solution very soon, 
or at least find a workaround. We'll keep you posted.

Thank you,
Ruochun
