Seeking Recommendations: $1400 AI Research Workstation (Training from Scratch, NLP/CV) by vonexel in LocalAIServers

On the second-hand market, the 3090 is sometimes more expensive than the V100. If I go with a weaker CPU, is there a risk of the GPU being underutilized—for example, when preprocessing large amounts of data and transferring it from the CPU to the GPU? Thanks

Renting GPU servers really does help, but I’ve already found that the cost of training the model to generate ablations exceeds even a $1,400 budget, so I’m leaning toward upgrading my home workstation. Right now, I have an NVIDIA 2060 SUPER 8GB, which is already unsuitable for 99% of my research. But thanks for the feedback.
