If the app developers choose

If the app developers choose to code for the Blackwell architecture, we certainly could use the new gpus.

I'm sure they can use it on

I'm sure they can use it on their OpenCL variants as-is. it's just incredibly wasteful from a cost perspective. no one with $30-40k to spend on a single GPU is going to use it for this...

Just imagine how many Rtx 3080 ti's or Titan V's you could buy for that.....   :)

At an average price of $600 on EBAY for a used 3080Ti, 50+ units for $30,000.  Then, of course, you'll need more motherboards, PSUs, CPUs, RAM, SSDs, computer cases (maybe)...  I doubt that the next $10,000 will cover those items.  Need I go on?

I was referring to the eventual RTX5000 series consumer gpus that Nvidia will eventually produce.  I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for them though.

Nvidia's focus is on AI and the hardware for that.  That is tying up their contracted foundry utilization.  Will be a long while before they allocate foundry resources for cutdown Blackwell silicon for consumer gpus.

I'm guessing 3rd quarter 2025 before we see Blackwell RTX5090 gpus.

Are there any other strict

Are there any other strict two slot wide Nvidia GPU's?

Titan V

I am especially interested in rtx 3080 ti or faster GPU's.

So far the rtx 3080 ti's that are claiming 2 slots are still wider than a Titan V.

The Hybrid GPUs are 2 slots wide, or a GPU that is water cooled which most are even 1 slot.  But I don't think you like or want a water cooled GPU.

I want to revisit the latest

I want to revisit the latest results of YOUR Over Clocking of your NVIDIA gpus.

I have an EVGA rtx 3080 ti ftw3 ultra I want to push up to the fastest stable processing I can.

Currently about 2/3rds of the e@h brp7/meerKat tasks seem to be running at or below 240s (4 minutes).  This is with no Over Clocking.

A calculation of 4 minutes / task produces a ~1,1M estimate.  If I pick the fastest task times (221s/task), that shifts it up to a ~1.2M.

It seems reasonable that I can speed up this rtx 3080 ti without raising my invalids (much). 

What are your current success stories?

Tom,Are setting from a

Tom,

Are setting from a used $420  RTX3080 non-ti I bought last Oct useful to you?

https://einsteinathome.org/host/13168280

# card on top w/ monitor GPU:0(Device0), Gigabyte RTX 3080 10GB

Last look it had 799 valid vs 33 invalid burping meerkats and also runs GPUGRID

Skip

 

PS:  It's sister box with same card -  https://einsteinathome.org/host/13131086
