Which nVidia GPUs are you using?

[johnd126]

I'm moving my Blue Iris installation to a computer where I can actually install a video card and I'd like to get one that will work with the Codeproject AI. I don't have a ton of cash for this so I'm looking for the most inexpensive option that will run a useful version of CUDA. There is a refurbished Quadro K4000 available on Amazon for approx $100CAD, which is pretty much my price range. From what I can find it will only support CUDA 9.1. Is this good enough?

Which cards are everyone else using?

 

[johnd126]

So, I'll answer my own question: the Quadro K4000 will NOT work with Codeproject AI because it only supports compute level 3.0 and TyTorch (included with the AI package) requires compute level 3.7 or newer. Sending that card back and have another inexpensive card on the way.

You can look at the RTX 3050 or 3060

I must be in the way way back machine....running a nvidia gtx 1060 6GB card. seems to handle basic codeproject duties. I was running it on 7 cams. then i moved to internal IVS on 4 cams. now only 3 cams without AI running codeproject.

I have a gtx1080ti, which I don’t use for BI, but even though it’s about 13 years old, it’s a beast. You have to get pretty fancy card$ to out perform it. Overkill, unless you run lots of AI cameras, but if you do, it could probably handle the load despite its age.

NVIDIA Tesla P4 here, love it!

1080 came out in 2017, so just 7 years old

I see where it says that: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Specs

Fwiw, nvidia says may 1016:

Introducing The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, The World’s Fastest Gaming GPU

35% faster than a GTX 1080, and even faster than the NVIDIA TITAN X Pascal– available March 10th, starting at $699.

www.nvidia.com

But I’ve got an email where I mentioned it to a colleague from 2015, so I know it’s close to ten years old.

Launch dates 2nd column, ( if Wikipedia is accurate)

I'm using a 750ti

The challenge is to find an inexpensive, low profile and low power (70 watts or less) Nvidia card. Most of the reliable sellers are out of stock right now, at least for the GTX 3050 cards.

Amazon has low profile RTX 3050s

I'm using a RTX3050 w/ CUDA 11.8.89. Been running this setup for about a year w/ 9 cameras on CPAI. No issues. I have been wondering if I could move up to CUDA 12, anyone running that on a RTX3050?
