Hi,

If at all possible can vulkan be supported on kepler cards? It would have
immediate benefits for use with RetroArch and the mupen64plus (parallel)
libretro core which recently added vulkan support for their new plugin based on
the old cpu based angrylion plugin from the original mupen64plus project. 

Angrylion is not very usable without a powerful cpu despite being the most
accurate plugin for nintendo64 emulation, but now with the new parellel plugin
this changing quickly. However anyone using nouveau drivers can not take
advantage of this new feature unlike those with intel, amd or nvidia drivers.

Nvidia supports Vulkan on both kepler and maxwell cards, but given the state of
maxwell and nouveau it would be great if at least kepler could be supported.

Here are some relevant links concerning RetroArch.

Thanks!
