Yes, but you can connect any number of GPUs to an n1-standard-1, so feel free to add $.05/hr :).

- gwern 10y agoIs the n1-standard-1 instance fast enough to not be the bottleneck for the K80?
- boulos 10y agoIt really depends on what you're doing. If you are doing large transfers over PCIe back and forth, not really. But lots of things work just fine. The bigger challenge for large ML models is the memory you'd need to back it. But with GCE you can happily do a custom machine with up to 6.5 GB per vCPU, just so you can fit the output ;).
- NegatioN 10y agoSlightly off-topic, but I don't know where to get help with this. I see one of our projects has gotten a quota of 16 GPUs in asia-east1, us-central1, us-east1. However we seem to have been allocated nothing in europe-west1. Is this an error, or simply something I have to manually ask for somewhere? "Quota 'NVIDIA_K80_GPUS' exceeded. Limit: 0.0" :( I'm so psyched to finally be able to use GPUs on GCE instead of AWS, so any help would be appreciated.
