As far as I can see, you are using an Ampere GPU, more specifically, the GA106 chip. To make any CUDA program work with your GPU, you need CUDA >= 11.1.

I already have that according to nvidia-smi so...

Ok, some thoughts:

Maybe you have more than one compiler, nvidia-smi reports one version but you are actually compiling with an older version.
Maybe you have NVIDIA prime/optimus like in this issue. In that case you should enable the GPU to use it.

ok looks like the issue is 1st option so i reinstalled cuda, thanks for that
