Need help installing a GPU

[105437]

That is the "equivalent" to the GT1030 I mentioned, except the 1030 has more CUDA cores.

Found the P400 for $80.
Found a GT1030 like below for $120.

If you are using it just for DeepStack, I think the performance will be comparable between those two.

Yes, for Deepstack.

 

[105437]

Do both of these cards get power from the motherboard?

 

[wittaj]

Yes they do, so go with whichever one you can get faster or cheaper as I believe the performance is about the same when I compared my make times to others that had the 400.

 

[105437]

Just ordered the P400. Looking forward to an improvement. My goal is to be able to run the dark model at night. Right now, it's not possible due to really slow processing time.

Someone wrote here that ram is also important ..

So i go for K1200 with 4GB for my first baby step with gpu version

Low profile, only 1 slot is blocked (i need the other) and cooler is not blocked by the other card.

 

[wittaj]

Yeah, RAM is important, but low profile and get power from motherboard limits the RAM options. Certainly would want more than 2GB if doing more.

My GPU never goes over 10% running DS.

 

[user8963]

k1200 has 512 cuda cores and 4gb, its the low budget version of k2200, no need for power connector and fits into sff

bracket is available everywhere

RAM is important if you are going to use the GPU for decoding

 

[user8963]

not sure if i can run 2 of them, i have a board with
x16 and x4 and nvme on 6500 , not sure if the limited bandwidth of the pcie will have enough power to max it if needed .. maybe multi gpu support will be available soon in blue iris

 

[MikeLud1]

Blue Iris does have multi gpu support for decode. It would be DeepStack that would need to support multi gpu.

 

[sebastiantombs]

I asked about that in the last webinar. Maybe someday it will, but for now it's just a single GPU.

 

[MikeLud1]

I just asked does DeepStack support multi GPUs on DeepStack's Fourm.

 

[MikeLud1]

I asked about that in the last webinar. Maybe someday it will, but for now it's just a single GPU.

You can run up to 8 instances of DeepStack on one GPU.

 

[sebastiantombs]

I have two instances running and found more increased detection time. Beats me as to why.

I am running four instances and are getting 80ms detection time using 4mp images and DeepStack set to high.

 

[sebastiantombs]

What GPU are you running @MikeLud1 ?

 

[MikeLud1]

What GPU are you running @MikeLud1 ?

I am running a GeForce RTX 3060 using it to decode 11 4MP cameras, 2 2MP cameras, and are running 4 instances of DeepStack, below are my system's stats.

Yes they do, so go with whichever one you can get faster or cheaper as I believe the performance is about the same when I compared my make times to others that had the 400.

Hello @wittaj As a n3wb, I appreciate all your comments. Would you elaborate on the above? I've been trying to catch up on GPU's and everything I've read indicates that the number of CUDA cores is key. I understand that both the beards are at the low-end, but the GT1030 has 50% more CUDA cores than the P400, so I'd expect the difference to be measurable. Is it that 256 up to 384 is just not that significant? Thanks again.
