I have the same suspicion as you, and I like how delicately you put.
One thing that stands out is a reference to a "AMD 3600" which makes little sense in the context of buying a V100. Why buy an older low-mid range CPU in a deep learning rig with a high end Pro GPU. There is also talk of "accidentally upgraded the memory to 32GB".
- zitterbewegung 6y agoYea, so I thought I only needed 32gb for refinement but I ran out of memory when training a 800mb dataset. I use a 3600 ryzen right now and I saw that v100s are approximately the same price as a Titan rtx .
- britmob 6y agoYou only need a large amount of system RAM for the initial dataset encoding. You can do this once per dataset on a high memory config on AWS for pennies.
- zitterbewegung 6y agoI agree with you but I want to keep costs down so I am using my workstation .
