the user can choose the implementation that suits their requirements.
Supported algorithms and values:
nexapow
1 - default kernel for RTX 40xx series
2 - default kernel for GTX 10xx series
some 20xx and 30xx GPUs may benefit from choosing this kernel
as more energy efficient than #3
3 - default kernel for RTX 20xx and 30xx series (high power consumption)
