They say ECC works (?) so you would know.

I recently had a faulty A100, for some reason the provider turned off ECC on that card, so it silently failed and gave junk results... Took me a minute to figure out.

The weights loaded fine, but as I was training the loss made no sense. So I wrote some basic matmul test.
