    1080 Ti - Degradation of Performance During Neural Network Training

    That sounds plausible. The card has three fans covering the entirety of it, so I can't really tell what's going on with the VRMs - and I don't fancy taking it apart either, but the behaviour does match. Also, if you look at e.g. the Odyssey capture, whenever I test games I get this pretty...

    1080 Ti - Degradation of Performance During Neural Network Training

    Will report back once I've found the event viewer log. Don't think I've used DDU on this machine, no. This is actually a relatively recent clean install of windows after suffering some unrecoverable corruption on my hard drive. CPU is a Core i7 4820K - I had it overclocked at one point, but I...

    1080 Ti - Degradation of Performance During Neural Network Training

    Thanks! Installed that one as well. After a reboot I ran MSI Afterburner again and it was able to run the test just fine - reports 90% pass. I've tried it out on a few games and it seems like I'm getting graphics crashes across the board at this point, not just with neural net training :/ Even...

    1080 Ti - Degradation of Performance During Neural Network Training

    I'm on Windows 10 version 1903. Haven't resorted to DDU yet - just going to try out the driver hotfix you've linked. MSI Overclocking is being a bit weird. When I start testing, it'll peak my GPU usage for a few minutes, but it won't stop the test of its own accord, and when I hit 'Stop' it...

    1080 Ti - Degradation of Performance During Neural Network Training

    So, I'm still testing the results, but I think you've hit the nail on the head - at least as far as my thermal situation goes. Tweaking the fan curve in MSI Afterburner has made a huge difference - the way it was set up: Meant that literally the moment temperature dropped below 90'C, fan speed...

    1080 Ti - Degradation of Performance During Neural Network Training

    Thanks guys! So much good insight :) There is an element of stepping up to higher resolutions when training StyleGAN, yes. I'm not sure whether the GPU load increases as such, but what does happen is that the size of the image batches gets reduced at the very least, so as to remain inside the...

    1080 Ti - Degradation of Performance During Neural Network Training

    Thanks rtwjunkie! * The PSU is a HX Series™ HX1050 Power Supply — 1050 Watt 80 PLUS® Gold Certified Modular PSU, which is about six years old at this point. * 16GB RAM. * Ambient room temps have been warm, but not too warm - around 22'C to 24'C in the past week. * Airflow should be pretty good...

    1080 Ti - Degradation of Performance During Neural Network Training

    Up front: I have an Inno3D GeForce GTX 1080Ti iChill X3 with an ASUS P9X79 Pro motherboard, running Windows 10. I know Inno3D doesn't have the best reputation, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed I don't need to replace the GPU just yet ;) I've noticed this issue mainly while running neural...
