Graphic card for leela

[John]

HI guys, i want to upgrade my graphic card for using leela and i am wondering what is the best shot.

I have pc already and i am just upgrading graphic card.

My budget is about 250-300 dollars

The best shot is a little outside your budget: RTX 2060 (18 knps to run net T30/T40)

Inside your budget, the best is is GTX 1660Ti, but it will be 4 or 5 times slower than RTX 2060. RTX 2060 can use half-float (cudnn-fp16) to run Leela, but not GTX.

You can see speed of different GPUs here: http://lc0.org/benchmark

Basically if you can afford RTX 2060, that's the best choice.

Anything slightly cheaper will have massively worse performance.

Also anything more expensive (2070, 2080, 2080ti) although will give better nps, will still give worse performance per dollar.

Is there a max number of graphic cards that Leela can use at one time?
