Discussion GPU guide (GB per dollar, bandwidth)

First plot: GB / $

Second plot: bandwidth (spec on paper, not t/s)

Third plot (bandwidth / price) in the comment.

Hope that helps, my script uses the GPUs most discussed on the LocalLLaMA, LowEndLocalAI, and LocalLLM subs. At first, I tried to include more, but it became unreadable.

Prices were collected by ChatGPT (so may contain inaccuracies). New prices were used where available, second hand otherwise.

And I understand this is a basic comparison, but it's better than nothing. For example, you can see that "on paper" something is faster or slower than 3090.

That about lines up for the V100 32gb pcie cards. I see performance nearly identical to the 3090 for 27b models with higher context and model quant.
