This is a report after my first day of training my Ataxx network: https://www.game-ai-forum.org/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=693 Ataxx is played on a 7x7 board. The rules are different, but I expect 7x7 Go would produce similar results. 2k self-play games are more than enough to produce a huge strength improvement at the beginning.
It would take my system less than one day to generate 285k games on a single GPU. But speed optimizations are probably not your biggest problem at the moment. As I wrote in my previous message, it is important to control the variety of your self-play game. In my program, I have a function to count the number of distinct board configurations for each move number of the self-play games. This way, I can ensure that the same opening is not replicated too many times.
