My projects involve a blend of fast CPU and GPU, so I decided to build a fast system recently with 1 GeForce GTX 1080, a fast Intel Core i7, and 128 GB of RAM.

I'll install another GTX 1080 soon. I found that the new Titans are hard to get and the performance/price ratio seems favorable on the 1080's.
I got Ubuntu 16.04 to work with the latest 1080 graphics drivers and CUDA 8 RC drivers -- no small feat. Reading all the documentation helps, and even then, it took some finagling.
- pilooch 10y agoSee https://github.com/beniz/deepdetect/issues/126#issuecomment https://github.com/beniz/deepdetect/issues/126#issuecomment and other links online. The trick is to install CUDA 8 without the attached driver, then install the new NVidia driver. Once you got that, install on 16.04 is straightforward.
- dj-wonk 10y agoYep. Also, this is a nice write-up for TensorFlow with CUDA 8.0 RC and cuDNN 5.1.5 with Ubuntu 16.04: https://alliseesolutions.wordpress.com/2016/09/08/install-gpu-tensorflow-from-sources-w-ubuntu-16-04-and-cuda-8-0-rc/ https://alliseesolutions.wordpress.com/2016/09/08/install-gp...
