 <h3>CUDA®-Enabled Builds (Experimental)</h3>
 
-Nvidia CUDA® builds are available, but still early in development. This version may not be the latest, and should be considered experimental. Not all GPU versions may be supported.
+Nvidia CUDA® builds experimental and outdated due to difficulty producing binary distributions covering all systems and GPU architectures. If you require CUDA support, the Python version of DVR-Scan is compatible with any CUDA® enabled version of the `opencv-python` module.  You can get better performance or use DVR-Scan on a wider variety of GPUs if you build the module on your system, with the latest SDK version.
