Hi everyone,
I am a researcher in the area of deep learning, and am looking to put together my first build primarily for this purpose. (I will also use it as a home server for storing/streaming personal media files but this is not so important.)
After some digging around in various places, I have put together the following spec with the help of PCPartPicker. At first I will get just one Titan X GPU but would like to scale up to the maximum of 4 GPUs over time. I’m a newbie to self-builds so I’d be very grateful for any advice/feedback on the following :
CPU: Intel Core i7-5930K 3.5GHz 6-Core
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15 82.5 VFM CPU Cooler
Motherboard: Asus X99-E WS/USB 3.1 SSI CEB LGA2011-3
Memory: 4 x 16GB DDR4-2400
Storage: Samsung 850 Pro Series 512GB 2.5” SSD (for operating system)
Samsung SM951 512 GB M.2-2280 SSD
3 x WD 6TB 3.5” 7200RPM Internal hard drive (will add more later as needed - mostly for personal media and large datasets)
GPU: NVIDIA Titan X (Pascal) 12GB (will scale up to 4 GPUs over time)
Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA P2 1600W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply (as I understand this much W will be needed with 4 GPUs)
Case: Any suggestions?
Other: TP-Link Archer T6e AC1300 PCI-Express x1 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi Adapter
One thing I am unsure about is cooling of the GPU(s). Is it a good idea to buy an extra water cooled system?
