please suggest GeForce Card for GPU computing in Matlab 2016b

At present, I am working on a project using Matlab 2016b. From the other topic, I found that card with pascal architecture is not supported by Matlab 2016b hence I can't use GTX 1080 for this purpose. Can you provide suggestion about GeForce card for Matlab 2016b?

From the documentation:
Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) for computation
To speed up computation, Parallel Computing Toolbox leverages NVIDIA GPUs with compute capability 2.0 or higher. See the compute capabilities of all NVIDIA GPUs. MATLAB does not support computation acceleration using AMD or Intel GPUs at this time.
The compute capability of GTX 1080 is 6.1, which is above the requirements.
What makes you think it wouldn't work.
I find other people having problem on using this card (pascal architecture) on Matlab2016b for deep learning and I want to clarify whether they have found the solution.
Can you be more specific as to what problems you refer to?

What makes you think that Pascal is not supported in R2016b? It is supported. Deep Learning is not supported, and there are a couple of things that don't work under some conditions ( interp3, filter ), but most things work.
I would recommend to use one of the GeForce cards with Maxwell compute capability, from the 9xx series - the Titan X is probably the top of the line.

I am sorry because I didnt write the detail of my project. I am going to use it for Deep Learning purpose. So, for this purpose do you recommend to use 9xx series in Matlab 2016b?
