cpu is ok, OpenCL (single kernel) gives me :  
cl\_build\_program\_failure (-11)  
failed to compile openCL kernels

is it a driver issue? if so, is there a recommended driver?

Use 275 drivers, the 280 ones don’t seem to work.

I have the same card with the latest driver (1 month ago) and I couldn’t use Vray RT so Vlado told me to install previous drivers.  
When I installed, all was working fine.
