Question: The influence of a GPU card on a model's accuracy #10

Closed MyVanitar closed 7 years ago

MyVanitar commented 7 years ago

Hello,

I decided to buy a GTX 1060 or GTX 1070 card to try with Deep Learning, but I am curious if the RAM size of The GPU or its bandwidth/speed will affect the accuracy of the final model or not, by comparing these two specific GPU cards.

in the other word, I want to know selecting the GTX 1060 will just cause longer training time over GTX 1070, or it will affect the accuracy of the model either.

It shouldn't affect the accuracy directly, only the training time.

No, different graphic cards (or graphic processing units) give same results, they only affect the training time as @ChlorideCull said.
