Re: I stumbled upon this article on the new Nvidia RTX GPUs
However maybe a bit less than 50% improvement with 3070 over my 2070 next month. This time 3080 seems the best deal. Last time it was 2070 or 2060. But aside money, 3080 seems way too large, and it consumes like an air conditioner, in real terms in excess of 350W.Laskos wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 12:07 amCUDA cores seem to perform well.

After all, if only for Chess and Go, maybe the best is to spend just $250 and get a second hand 2060 Super on top of my 2070, close to 100% boost. Will anyway have to upgrade the case and the overall cooling.Laskos wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 1:32 amHowever maybe a bit less than 50% improvement with 3070 over my 2070 next month.

Re: I stumbled upon this article on the new Nvidia RTX GPUs
Well, machine learning is important per se, and regarding board games, Go and some other turn based games not relying on AB search and massive pruning are best played by PCs using GPUs. Then, although I almost never play video games, to try one or two of the high end can be enjoyable.chrisw wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 1:47 pmOr buy yourself 20 cores and abandon giant networks that insist on GPULaskos wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 12:28 pmAfter all, if only for Chess and Go, maybe the best is to spend just $250 and get a second hand 2060 Super on top of my 2070, close to 100% boost.

Someone who understands better can see and explain something here?

Re: I stumbled upon this article on the new Nvidia RTX GPUs
Page 22 seems interesting:

But I am not able to forecast you how this 2xFP32 and 2xTensorOps of RTX 30xx will translate to current Lc0.

Re: I stumbled upon this article on the new Nvidia RTX GPUs
What I gathered says "it's complicated", the cycles come from many parts of the computation, so is the cycle number reduction by different components like tensor cores. CUDA etc. The range 1.40 to 2.20 is still possible for the speed-up from RTX 2080 to 3080 with Lc0 as it is built now. Some links:smatovic wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 12:54 pmPage 22 seems interesting:

Re: I stumbled upon this article on the new Nvidia RTX GPUs
Hmm, according to all those articles and papers, a slow down of RTX 3080 compared to RTX 2080 TI in some AI tasks is also possible.Laskos wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 1:40 pmWhat I gathered says "it's complicated", the cycles come from many parts of the computation, so is the cycle number reduction by different components like tensor cores.

You should compare 3080 with 2080 TI, they have similar SM core count.

Here we cannot compare directly old RTX 2080 Ti numbers with the RTX 3080 test. RTX 3080 test (1023 images/sec) uses significantly newer drivers, TensorFlow version, testing setup. But we have RTX Titan tested now which got 1082 images/sec on FP16 with the old result which was 653, compared with RTX 2080 Ti of 532 (old result). By extrapolation, with the "old setup" 3080 would get 617 images/sec, and now we can compare to 2080 Ti (532) and 2080 (382). The speed-up RTX 2080 --> 3080 is about 60%, which is good but not great.
