## NVIDIA GPUs
While older GPUs may work, it is recommended to use modern, supported GPUs. NVIDIA provides a [matrix of supported GPUs and features](https://developer.nvidia.com/video-encode-and-decode-gpu-support-matrix-new). If your card is on the list and supports CUVID/NVDEC, it will most likely work with Frigate for decoding. However, you must also use [a driver version that will work with FFmpeg](https://github.com/FFmpeg/nv-codec-headers/blob/master/README). Older driver versions may be missing symbols and fail to work, and older cards are not supported by newer driver versions. The only way around this is to [provide your own FFmpeg](/configuration/advanced#custom-ffmpeg-build) that will work with your driver version, but this is unsupported and may not work well if at all.
