Hello, a few days ago i decided to follow a tutorial that was using pytorch. I installed pytorch with the cuda command even though i didnt previously have CUDA installed. Today i got to the GPU part, and it seemed to go awfully slow, even though in the video it went much faster than me. I have a gtx 1070 and it was a simple MNIST example with 1 hidden layer. I did something similar on octave before and it went MUCH faster. So, i thought that probably not having cuda was the problem, i googled and i came to this: Is it required to set-up CUDA on PC before installing CUDA enabled pytorch?
I then installed cuda 11.5 on my machine. I tried the pytorch code again and it still had the same speed. Am i doing something wrong here?
