alternate PR for

apparently 10 series and older gpus don't work with cu128
10 series gpu have CUDA Compatibility of 7
and since GPU with Compatibility 7.2 is considered legacy by Nvidia
I belive everything under 7.2 should use cu126

I don't fully understand the situation with older gpus
from the information I can find it seems that they only deleted support on pytorch 2.8
and since we use 2.7 I'm not quite sure why it doesn't work with cu128

Testing right now, and it's currently downloading the correctly mentioned cu126. But it fails installation due to --no-cache-dir not being mentioned. If you want, I can edit my original code to default to cu126 for pascal as well. Or you can do so and add --no-cache-dir in your code as well. Thanks for your support. Everything else is perfect here.
