As a gamer I was initially surprised that works. It makes sense if server side use cased are more batch oriented/compute intensive.
Latency to start and stop "jobs" is critical in gaming as you are trying to hit a 60-144hz job time.
- etrain 10y agoGPUs in the cloud aren't targeted at gamers. They're targeted at people doing things like running render farms and training deep learning models.
- rl3 10y agoWhat about companies interested in real-time streaming of 3D content? That use case is extremely sensitive to latency, probably more so than normal gaming is. Fortunately the amount of additional latency introduced is likely to be negligible (another comment cites PCI-E switches incurring <= 1µs).
- wmf 10y agoThe added latency of a PCIe switch and some cables is 1 us or less; it should be negligible for almost any workload.
