Possible to use an Nvidia GPU with Framework 16?

[John_Perrow]

I’d like to work with the Cuda Nvidia framework to do ML/AI stuff, and that framework requires Nvidia GPU’s.

I’ve got an nvidia gpu plugged in via thunderbolt:

This does look like the gpu is working as much as it can and there’s no usb bottleneck at all, at least to me. Thanks for testing it. No worries about the power supply, I plan to use a different case,that can just take any PSU, and open air

How about not using cuda. people defaulting to cuda is why we don’t have good enough competition. and why nvidia tries to have us over a barrel. if developers would revolt against cuda and use more hardware agnostic programing we can get better results.

Especially with zluda being a thing that Nvidia is taking steps to squish.

How about not using cuda

Idealistically, I agree. We both know it’s not that simple in practice though.
