Looking for pure NN engine

Post by Minux47 »

I'm planning to compare traditional, NNUE, and pure neural network engines for a school project. I want to get two engines from each type, but I can't find a second pure Neural Network engine that I could use. One of the things I want to compare is the performance difference between pure NN running on CPU vs GPU. Does anyone know any pure NN (other than LCZero but similar to it) that I could run on my CPU (Ryzen 7600) and GPU (AMD 7700XT)? Most of the ones I found could only run on Nvidia cards.

Thanks in advance
