Verdict
AMD Instinct MI210
7.3 / 10 Expert Rating
A practical, PCIe-slot-friendly way to get CDNA 2 compute into a standard server, useful for smaller HPC and AI deployments, but clearly the entry point of its generation next to the dual-die MI250X and now well behind the MI300 series.
NVIDIA TITAN Xp
4 / 10 Expert Rating
A historically significant Pascal flagship that has been thoroughly outclassed; buy the GTX 1080 Ti instead if you want the same silicon for less.
