Optimal Configuration for 4x3090s
Mirrored from r/LocalLLaMA for archival readability. Support the source by reading on the original site.
| Aiming for RTX 6000 like performance at 25% of the cost. The top 2x3090s are connected via tensor parallelism, then those are connected in a pipeline feeding into another pair that are also using tensor parallelism. The reason being that I don't see anyone getting speedups by putting all 4x3090s in tensor parallelism (actually slower in most cases). I don't want to have to buy a whole new motherboard for this setup. Currently I have an Asus Proart B850 Creator and Ryzen 7600X CPU. So, I am likely going to purchase a dedicated PCI switch to get the required number of PCI lanes. i.e. Something like this I am able to fabricate my own brackets and parts now for securing the GPUs in the case. I am absolutely not going to go the open air mining style rig. I want them to all fit in the case securely. (The case is large enough). Question for the community: Has anyone else run this configuration before? What kind of inference speed did you get by moving from 2 cards to four? [link] [comments] |
