Can you also try:
t = 1
m = 80
c = 256
p = 1
This should be almost 2 MB.

You're right, the card's total memory size should become the limiting
factor for this approach.

OK. I guess you're putting the current row (24 KB) in there? And when
you were using global memory before, you had the current row fetched
from and sent to global memory each time?

I guess you also tried slightly smaller values, like 7680? So that
you'd fit in 3 GB.
