Should I buy it for AI before DDR shortage hits?
>>107486448You should kill yourself before reality hits lel
>>107486448I'm sure you don't need pictures of Taylor Swift sucking off a horse that badly anon, save your money.
>>107486448If you buy this you are stealing from AI and memory manufacturers and poor businesses.
>>107486448machines like these (this exact one? dunno) are fast enough for you to run your own LLM locally but not fast enough for you to run your own business off of itdo what you gotta do bro
can I buy it and upgrade ram myself?
>>107487235no, it's soldered.the framework desktop was largely designed by mandate from AMD as their premiere AI-first desktop
>>107486448What even is the point of buying one of this retarded framework desktop PC's? You will have zero upgradablity, and it costs a ridiculous amount of money. You can build a banger itx PC just for the price of this motherboard. And if you want something smaller you can just get a Mac mini.
Community forums are complaining about AMD drivers sucking ass... to the surprise of nobody
>>107487484but 4090 48gb is soldered too?
>>107486448Not worth money, I bought one of these and ended up returning it, its disgustingly incapable of doing anything beyond gaming due to having an effective tops performance of 50, if you are planning on using this for llm or comfy/zimg dont bother unless you want to talk to shit ass local llms at a glacial pace or wait 20 minutes for a single 1024x1024 SD gen, cant pair it with a real card for grunt either, not enough spare bandwidth and rocom is dead in the water, vulkan is inferrior to nvidia, better off getting a spark and a real gpu.
>>107488511> better off getting a sparklmao it's just as incapable
No it's not, this pos chinktech memebox pulls 50 tops and cant pair or pool with a card, the spark pulls 1000 tops and supports 400 gb/s transfer rate for pairing and since it's nvidia you are not relegated to dogshit doa rocom or trash vulkan for interaction. The chinks cut too many corners, theres a reason it's so cheap and it's not a good one.
>>107487052Pictures don't need 128GB, Strix Halo is more for LLMs.
>>107486448
>>107486448If you want to run sizable local LLMs, Strix Halo can be a great choice. Dave's Garage has a video comparing Framework desktop and two mini-PCs (also Strix Halo-based).https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sw3x5jvU96k
>>107488511Honestly was looking at it, then looked at motherboard, ano PCI express... Better off buying Minisforum
>>107486448What's up with these fucks calling motherboards a mainboard?
>>107489251lmaoI-is that a typo?
>>107486448Yes.
>>107489251>>107489251>>107489251ABSOLUTEBLOODYBARGAIN!!!
>>107490012probably offends troons who will never give birth
>>107490012Motherboard suggests there are components that are socketed into it, like RAM/CPU/GPU or other PCIe cards.In the context that most of those things in the FW Desktop come with the unit either soldered down or at least preinstalled, calling it a main board is in some ways more appropriate. About the only thing you have to install which isn't a cable assembly is the SSD.
>>107490269who cares, the concept is conveyed. troons live rent free in your head.
>>107486448this thing would be perfect if mem bandwidth is doubled
>>107490368not really, i just gave the obvious answer to an obviously leading question.
If you actually have a use case for it then yes
>>107490269Yeah it's also what I thought, seeing that the pajeet CEO is funded by Linus tech tips YouTuber.
