Notes to myself: RTX 2070, Cuda, cudnn, caffe, and faceswap

Install NVIDIA driver for RTX 2070: https://www.geforce.com/drivers

Install CUDA 10.0: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads

DO NOT re-install the drivers suggested by the CUDA installer:
Install NVIDIA Accelerated Graphics Driver for Linux-x86_64 410.48?

CuDNN:

cuDNN Runtime Library for Ubuntu18.04 (Deb)

cuDNN Developer Library for Ubuntu18.04 (Deb)

Caffe:

Installing Theano and CUDA on Mac OS X

I started trying Theano today and wanted to use the GPU (NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB) on my Mac. Here’s a brief instruction on how to use the GPU on Mac, largely following the instructions from http://deeplearning.net/software/theano/install.html#mac-os.

Install Theano:

Download and install CUDA: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads

Put the following lines into your ~/.bash_profile:

Note that the PATH line is necessary. Otherwise you may see the following message:

ERROR (theano.sandbox.cuda): nvcc compiler not found on $PATH. Check your nvcc installation and try again.

Configure Theano:

Test if GPU is used:

A more realistic example:

So it seems this GPU does not outperform the CPU. Well,GT 750M may not be the best GPU you can get… Someone else here has a similar experience.
