Hey fellow person-in-Australia, I bought a P100 for $250 on eBay and have been using that with some custom cooling I printed and it works pretty damn well. You wouldn’t want an M or K series Tesla though as they’re just too old and not powerful enough to be that useful.

- justinclift 3y agoAwesome. :) Is that $250 Australian, or $250 US?
- smcleod 3y agoAU
- justinclift 3y agoCool. Sounds like you got a good deal. :)
- smcleod 3y agoI think it was a fair deal - they are very old cards now require you to 3-D print a fan shroud, but and attach a fan and implement some temperature based fan control ( I whipped up this crappy little golang daemon for it <https://github.com/sammcj/nv_fan_control/blob/main/nv_fan_control.go https://github.com/sammcj/nv_fan_control/blob/main/nv_fan_co...> ). And of course you have to be happy with the additional 30 W idle power consumption when you’re not using it if it’s in your home server, which as I’m sure you’ll appreciate in Australia can be quite expensive now! If they cost more (say $350+) I probably go get a slightly more expensive, but much more modern RTX.
