I'm starting to find the SKUs popping up.
Hopefully the manufacturers see the demand and make plenty!

The biggest improvement in the P100 architecture was HBM2 memory, and now in Volta we have the tensor cores, which are great for neural network training but don't really help us out so far in cryoEM.
I'm looking forward to the RTX line - they offer a refresh of the consumer cards with TFLOPS ratings near Tesla speeds in single precision. I am looking to get my hands on one to check out the cooler though - it seems like they may have eliminated the pass-through cooling and gone with the dual-blower design, which could cause problems for people who put them in servers.

Subject: Re: [ccpem] RELION 3 Volta BenchmarksThanks Charles,
A little saddened by the Volta numbers honestly! Looks like the 1080 or 1080Ti are still value king as long as your model/data fits in GPU mem.
I'll test our 4 and 8 GPU 1080Ti configs you can throw in.
Cheers,
-Craig
