I have no choice but to move this into Honey.
sf-nnue-avx2-256halfkp below was my first run , using a precompiled version
stockfish-nn was my own compilation tailored for the Threadripper.
The above analysis was using 60 cores and about 20% of my two 2060 Supers.
Does Stockfish-nnue use your GPUs at all? I thought this engine did all its work on the CPUs.

You are correct - user error -- I had misread one of my hardware monitors, it was late and landed with a faulty conclusion.

It's just SF with a different eval; it's 100% a pure CPU engine.
