GPU Support

Livepeer enables node operators to transcode video on GPUs while concurrently mining cryptocurrencies and performing other CUDA operations such as machine learning. As there is a very wide range of GPU hardware out there, this document aims to crowdsource a list of specific GPU models that have been tested and verified to work on Livepeer. If you've tested an additional model, please submit an update to this document.

Overview

• Livepeer supports transcoding on NVIDIA GPUs with NVENC/NVDEC. Any GPU listed here (opens in a new tab) with those chips should theoretically work. Note that different models may be subject to different session limits that restrict the amount of video that can be transcoded.
• See this document which lists tested driver versions (opens in a new tab) on the NVIDIA cards.
