So which consumer-end card would be better for CUDA development on a budget?
I'm looking into:
GTX 1080:
$600
2560 CUDA Cores
8 GB GDDR5X
320GB/s
GTX 1070:
$400
1920 CUDA Cores
8 GB GDDR5
256GB/s
From a price/performance perspective the GTX 1070 seems like the better choice especially given that both have the same amount of memory, but I do want to hear opinions from other CUDA developers.

1070
Ditch CUDA for OpenCL.
This thread has my interest.
Until now I was using an Nvidia Jetson since I do embedded but I am thinking of /just putting a desktop GPU in the system/

If you're only interested in CUDA, get the original Titan. It crushes the 1080 in double precision and was around $200 the last time I checked.

3-4 of these used

I'm far too comfortable with the various CUDA libraries out there at this point to really consider switching, but that is probably a pretty lame excuse...

I've done a bit of embedded myself, but only on platforms that don't have GPUs

More than $200, but still looks like a solid option. Most of our work is done using single precision, but some of our potential ventures may require double precision. Thanks, I'll look into it.

I just checked and there are lots of them on ebay. It looks like $275 is around the standard price.

Ah, thanks, I should have checked that site out too
GTX 1050 Ti if you don't want to spend much and just want to dip in toes first into CUDA
