Thanks for watching!

Awesome, thank you!

Have fun!

Thanks for the idea!

Appreciated!

Thanks!

Much appreciated! I attempt to keep my mouth shut and let the data show the info. Definitely not an expert and just learning like everyone else. I never intended on creating an actual channel, the first video was to prove a conversation with friends out with hard data, the testing app is for other uses in my lab, etc. Just turning into a place where we can all share some data and learn from it, or at least burn some of my power bill together!

Thanks a ton! Didn't see any email - reach out robot@robotf.ai or ping me on reddit/etc

Thank you. I did send it to the wrong address. Just resent it to the correct address.

the 4060's are stacked with each other on the bench node in this test (I don't recommend that, they could use space between them since side facing fans, and why I use a lot of pcie extenders normally) and don't run their fans unless there is a load - the M40 in this test has an active fan on all the time. Also I live in a hot climate and it's been 85-100 degrees (75+ in the workshop as it's not conditioned)🔥

@@RoboTFAI 👍- Just looking to learn ways to extend the life of these GPUs and increase performance for LLM usage when running 10 hours a day (work day, remote-work, as a code assistant)

I normally leave the unloaded model test off as it doesn't allow as much resolution in the smaller charts. I use Gen 4 NVMe M.2 drives in each of these systems (rated up to 5000/4800 MB/s...yea right).

Or you can get 1tb ram and have 500gb ramdisk ^^

@@Zeroduckies Using HP ML 350p machines one only gets up to 768GB of dram that has to be LRdram, but that ram is running on three channels that actually slows it down from the 2 channel 256GB because of the required 'blocking in' and processing. It is all in the specification PDF from HP.. It is only when going to The G11 model that one actually get significantly faster (PCIe 5.0.. HP skipped the 4.0 architecture in these machines) ram and a larger capacity at a astronomically increase in price.. So when getting a 'loaded' 256 dram ML 350p G8 afor a trade of on older gamer machine with a at GTX 1660ti and a less than tenth geni7 (about a 300$ value) one must be looking for a fast economical memory solution and that is where the Optane P900 card come in (with their 4000GB/s bust) and one must also compare that at the rate that the GPU actually can take in, so this is a cheap way to run data in (and out) in a comparable manner as dram... plus you are only occupying a PCIe 4 lane. Now this is al gfine and dandy, but in dual cpu chip-sets, the PCIe lanes go all over the place and that is a major consideration as the right and left side are controlled by different CPUs and SLI or VRLinking can be required for OS recondition of the linked GPU cards that is inherently required for proper function logging.... and PCIe controllers on these machines. They are going to be slower than single CPU specifically designed mother boards that are made other companies such as the multi-PCIe 16x SuperMicro or Gigabyte professions models... that have come out specifically designed for this type of application that use NVME arrays for storage.. and then you are back to the amount of writes that are going to be applied to the storage.

You can absolutely span the larger model between cards! These tests are actually doing that, performance depends on cards you are splitting between - but will be between your lowest end card, and highest end cards (if different models). Running multiple cards doesn't necessarily increase performance, it's really for expanding your VRAM capacity.
