Though that will take another year at least before it comes to fruition. What was your GPU budget? If you were able to run them CPU-based I think a mid-range Pascal GPU would do great. You can sell it later for at least half the price as well.

- kuschku 10y agoMy budget – being a student, and having to finance it from money I’d usually spend for textbooks, etc – was basically 0, but I managed to carve out enough for about 200€, which was enough for an RX 480 8GB, but could not afford any performant NVIDIA card (at the time, the GTX 1060 6GB was still hovering over 300€, and the normal price in Germany is still over 300€)
- Const-me 10y agoI remember when I was a student with very little money, I was forced to be creative. You should be able to buy used GTX 960 on eBay for about $100. Like most PC hardware, the only point of failure there is fan. Even if it fails, it should be cheap to replace. Sure it’s slower than 1060 you want, but not _that_ much slower, single precision is 2.3 TFlops versus 3.9 TFlops.
- kuschku 10y agoThat's about half the performance, that's quite a bit. And all this would be a lot easier, if I could use TensorFlow with AMD.
