Install Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
The old server has been dead for a while. Finally I bought a new PSU (not sure whether it is the PSU’s problem), reinstalled everything, organized cables, now I have new a desktop. Later I reinstalled the OS too, previously using a Windows Server 2012 for some reason (failure to install any linux at that time due to the nividia driver problem).
Surprisingly, this time it is a pretty smooth process to install a Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (with a AMD GPU at the beginning), and then switch to a nVidia GPU (old 4GB GTX 970).
In case you have problem install Ubuntu with a GTX GPU, try the solution of ‘blacklist nouveau driver’ in here
Install nVidia Drivers
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-440
sudo reboot
# also you can install in setting -> advanced drivers
Install CUDA
If you want to delete old CUDA installed, try sudo apt-get –purge remove cuda.
wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64/cuda-ubuntu1804.pin
sudo mv cuda-ubuntu1804.pin /etc/apt/preferences.d/cuda-repository-pin-600
wget http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/10.2/Prod/local_installers/cuda-repo-ubuntu1804-10-2-local-10.2.89-440.33.01_1.0-1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i cuda-repo-ubuntu1804-10-2-local-10.2.89-440.33.01_1.0-1_amd64.deb
sudo apt-key add /var/cuda-repo-10-2-local-10.2.89-440.33.01/7fa2af80.pub
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install cudaSet CUDA ENV (not sure whether needed)

mkdir cuda-testing
cd cuda-testing/
cp -a /usr/local/cuda-10.2/samples samples-10.2
cd samples-10.2
make -j 4 # (add -k to skip errors)
~/cuda-testing/samples-10.2/bin/x86_64/linux/release$ ./nbody
Error
Cuda 10.2+Ubuntu 18.04 might give you error message of
