I am not sure about this, even my GTX1060 3 GB was kinda fast than K80 on Google Colab. Also think about storage size/speed, internet upload speed, security/restrictions of data, 12 hour limitation etc.

> K80

Yes, I meant that I got K80 and I was doing some CNN/BERT etc. Just checked, K80 (single unit) has similar TFLOPs to GTX1060 3GB so with other overheads in cloud (slow CPU, drive storage etc), Colab could be slower anyway.

Now I have a PC with dual GPU setup (RTX3090 + RTX3060) and have access to GPU servers at Uni, so no more Colab :)

> have a 1650 which is no slouch but colab trained in 5s what took my GPU 10 minutes.

is that a laptop GPU ?
