My take-home message from a recent NVIDEA presentation in our lab
was that number of floating-point processors within the GPUs is
shifting towards 16bit FPUs at the cost of reducing (or
maintaining) the number of 64bit FPUs . As a general trend, this
means a shift towards faster graphic processing rather than
towards faster scientific processing. Indeed in the quick search
on benchmarks I just did, I only saw ~30% improvement mentioned
with respect games that I have never even heard of. Thus keep your
scientific processing expectations under control!<br>
<br>
My two cents,<br>

<div>I suspect the 1080Ti will still be the better buy for its
larger memory capacity.</div>

yet. I think the "founder" edition will be out at the 21.9
and I think the relion users will wait for the "blower"

Subject: [ccpem] RTX 2080 Benchmarks?<br>
<br>
<div dir="ltr">Hi
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Has anyone had the opportunity to benchmark Relion on
Nvidia's newest card the RTX 2080 verses GTX 1080?
Non-Relion benchmarks seem to show 20-30% performance
increase vs 1080.</div>
