OK, switching Leela to Multiplexing, since I have two GPUs, and 4 CPUs, but leaving BackendOptions blank, since it crashes when the recommended data is entered (see my other post) I now have Task Manager open exactly as you advised.
Leaving backendoptions blank can never lead to a good end.
And what Corres said, is the first time i see this type of command for Leela.
This is what you want to put in the BackendOptions in Leela parameters the Fritz GUI: (backend=cudnn-fp16,gpu=0),(backend=cudnn-fp16,gpu=1)
And choose multiplex(if you do NOT have 2 identical GPUs) or roundrobin(if you have 2 identical GPUs) for using the 2 GPUs.
If that doesn't work then.......nah it will work.

"Is it a boy or girl?"
YES! He replied.....
Windows Task Manager shows only the CPU usage of GPU (=GRAPHIC CARD)and associated programs..
As I have supposed for monitoring the real GPU parameters and usage YOU OUGHT TO USE GPU-Z and not Task Manager.

I'm considering another ASUS Rog RTX 2080 Super for black friday. How much gain can i expect over single 2080 Super?
Enhanced Leela performance.

Enhanced Leela performance.
About 20-30 % plus.
Much more. I think 85 % to 95 % is to be expected.

It is an illusion.
The price is not proportional to the powers.

Sorry, I misunderstood your sentence.
A twin GPUs give about 70 % plus power considering a single GPU.

roundrobin(if you have 2 identical GPUs) for using the 2 GPUs.
Hmm... I didn't know that. I tried it and it seems to be giving faster speeds than multiplexing, so you are right.
Any other tips for multi-gpu users ?

Is ponder an option for twin GPUs and NN
For example Leela selfplay at one GPU each.
My PSU is strong enough.
If you play one GPU against the other GPU the ponder may be O.K.
I am not sure if ponder works on Leela.
If it works you should configure Leela-s well.
I do not know why you stick to ponder. It causes plus heat and decreases the stability of the system.
Ponder is really good for PC against PC match but for engine-engine match is problematic.
