As the title says when combining a p40 and a rtx 3090 a few use casese come to mind and i wanted to know if they could be done ? greatly appreciate your help:
first could you run larger modells where they are computed on the 3090 and the p40 is just used for vram offloading and would that be faster then system memory ?

Could you compute on both of them in a asymetric fashion like putting some layers on the RTX3090 and fewer on the p40 ?

Lastly and that one probably works you could run two different instances of LLms for example a bigger one on the 3090 and a smaller on the p40 i asume.

    okay thank you guys so this only really makes sense if i want to run different models on the different gpus or if i have something so big i need the 48gb of vram for and i can deal with the slower speeds :) thanks for the feedback
