I think you missed that this whole discussion is in the context of deep learning, therefore your comment does not apply. It is 30x slower that 3090Ti for that purpose.

My initial comment was correcting a factually inaccurate statement regarding CPU performance.

It is you who barged into the thread with unrelated GPU performance numbers, but whatever :)

You are missing forest for the trees.

Here's the comment I assume you are allegedly trying to "correct":

> with full training you are out of luck with CPUs, the gap is much bigger. 64c TR could only get to roughly 1TFlops

1TFlops is not the main part of that statement, and it is qualified with "roughly" which I suppose is not too far from the truth in the context. And the context is "training ... the gap is much bigger", and in this case "much" is at least 30x even with the updated number.
