Early results:
Nvidia's voice/noise canceling does seem to help a bit. However, my PC, with an MX250 GPU (Pascal, now quite obsolete, not even a GTX), feels significantly more sluggish. When the Dragon microphone is on the "NV RTX Voice.exe" consumes 5 to 6% of CPU. Even when nothing is being said. Apparently this is the cost of doing this voice "noise cancellation" on background noise when nothing is being said. Note that this is CPU, not GPU utilization. Process Explorer reports no GPU utilization. Task Manager says that the GPU is being utilized, but the Copy Engine, not the actual SM Streaming Processors. This may make sense, just copying data in and out of the GPU, where it is quickly determined to be quiet. Even this low utilization makes my PC fans turn on. The constant background noise seems not to hurt speech recognition, but when they ramp up and down, it hurts. There seem to be more occurrences of the annoying 20+ second stalls. As might be expected, with yet another concurrent process in the mix, plus 10 more threads. -- Anyway, much of this is probably an artifact of my old MX250 GPU. 12.4 GFlops FP16, 797 GFlops FP32, versus 11.20 TFlops FP16, 5.599 TFlops FP32 on the Quadro RTX 3000 Max-Q in a more recent machine like the Microsoft Surface Book 3 high end. I.e. FP16 = one thousand X faster, FP32 circa 60X faster. I expect that NVIDIAS RTX Voice uses FP16, but I don't know for sure. FP16 on the old Pascal based GPU was not really in hardware, but was provided for SW development, amd was hence slower than FP32; whereas on the newer machines FP16 is circa 2X faster than FP32, as one would expect. -- BOTTOM LINE: NVIDIA RTX Voice seems to work even on this old machine. It feels like it improves quality, but at the cost of making this older but muscular PC feel sluggish. I look forward to trying NVIDIA RTX Voice on a modern GPU, with Dragon. ------------------------- DPG15.6 (also DPI 15.3) + KB, Sennheiser MB Pro 1 UC ML, BTD 800 dongle, Windows 10 Pro, MS Surface Book 3, Intel Core i7-1065G7 CPU @ 1.3/1.5GHz (4 cores, 8 logical, GPU=NVIDIA Quadro RTX 3000 with Max-Q Design. |
