Thanks for the in-depth reply!
I’m currently waiting to find out how much of a budget we have to spend. I’m really hoping it’s at least <=£2k.
With the SSD - how much of a bottleneck will it create if it’s pulling the data from a HDD?
I’ll be working solely with multi-channel audio synthesis/multivariate regression - one of the reasons I’ve struggled trying to spec it myself is that most of the bench marks are done using computer vision models and I’m finding it hard to transfer it across into how they would perform on audio. Though I would assume most systems that perform well on image/video would be sufficient for audio.
How do the threadrippers stack up to the Intel stuff - I’ve no real experience of AMD?
I would assume that unless I go for older GPUs I’ll probably only be able to afford one.
I think at present I’d probably be the only person running stuff on it…however it would be ideal if I could run a couple of models at a time for time efficiency.
