I think I'm either going to change my workflow and use another OS or switch fully to PyTorch.
So is it an easy process to convert a tensorflow program from 1.4 to 1.5? When I tried converting something from 0.9 to 1.0 I couldn't figure it out.

k80 is pretty old now, 1080ti have x5 perf of k80 for one tenth of the price
When I say K80, I mean running a GPU in the cloud, not running it locally (and as an aside, due to the crypto boom, buying a physical GPU for cheap is more difficult)

A nice compromise is the GTX1080 that you can rent at Hetzner for 100e/month [0]. I am not sure how it compares to other GPUs but for experimenting it works quite well. [0] https://www.hetzner.de/dedicated-rootserver/matrix-ex

I've been dreading version updates ever since they dropped Mac binary support. There are always obscure things to patch I have to find out by myself, the build easily wastes a whole day. I think I'm either going to change my workflow and use another OS or switch fully to PyTorch.
(I still used CUDA 8, but 9 should also work. You just need to find the version of the command line tools it works with)

I'm using it, and I can only recommend - 0 problems, pretty decent box for a low price. Great solution, and waiting for the crypto bubble to burst and GPU prices to fall !
