Install cuda

---

Check all well by listing your GPUs (Command 1 below) and checking the properties of GPUs ( Command 2 below) , and checking nvcc is setup (Command 3 below). If you don’t get a meaningful response, most likely something is off with your environment variables or worst case your driver / CUDA version

1. nvidia-smi
2. nvidia-smi -q
3. nvcc -V

Download gpu burn from 

https://github.com/wilicc/gpu-burn

#unzip gpu-burn-master.zip

#cd gpu-burn-master

#make

Running GPU Burn (Few example commands below)

1.  ./gpu_burn  (Single precision GPU burn for 10 seconds)
2. ./gpu_burn -d ( Double precision GPU burn for 10 seconds)
3. ./gpu_burn 120 (Single precision GPU burn for 120 seconds)

Intel X710 OCP has confusing name device manager

Intel X710 OCP has confusing name device manager

The OCP have two ports , and it show different name under BIOS.
The windows os device manager also follow the different name.
1st Port: Intel(R) Ethernet Controller X710 for 10GbE SFP+ Other Ports: Intel(R) Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X710



This is known issue.
From Intel document, https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/22283/Intel-Ethernet-Adapter-Complete-Driver-Pack => Please refer to the "Adapter User Guide.pdf" from the driver package
search "correct branding". in this pdf.


Compatibility Notes
Devices based on the Intel Ethernet Controller XL710 (4x10 GbE, 1x40 GbE, 2x40 GbE) have an expected
total throughput for the entire device of 40 Gb/s in each direction.
The first port of Intel® Ethernet Controller 700 Series based adapters will display the correct branding string.

All other ports on the same device will display a generic branding string.
