Performance Analysis of Mixing RTX 3080 and A2000 for Stable Diffusion
djekler · reddit · 2026-08-18
A user inquires about the effects of adding an RTX A2000 (12GB) to an existing RTX 3080 (10GB) setup for Stable Diffusion.
Key questions include:
- Performance: Will speed improve, be limited by the slower card, or average out?
- VRAM: Can the 22GB total VRAM be pooled to run larger models like Minimax?
- Configuration: Are specific settings required in ComfyUI or CUDA to leverage both cards?
