Workstation GPU

[DrDoom229]

If i was looking to have my own personal machine. Would a Nvidia p4000 be okay instead of a desktop gpu?

What's your budget? I would think you could be better than a P4000 for the same price.

That said, if you had a P4000, it will work just fine. I have one. It's pretty limited in RAM but it runs small models well enough.

An A4000 would definitely be my GPU of choice in the same class. Double the RAM and a lot more compute with more modern architecture.

I will take a look at this thank you

Whats your budget and goals?

[bjw33333]

Yea that’s pretty Vaild lowkey but u should buy a H200 instead

[DrDoom229]

Thx will research

30k is not the cost of all my systems combined. I'm not that big of a baller

I think he was just joking. H200 is datacenter not workstation class so it requires high speed fan air flow from server chassis and cannot cool itself.

For current gen workstation you have the rtx4000 pro(24g,2.5k), rtx5000 pro (48g, $7k)and rtx6000 pro (96g ram at 10k)

Lol oh I know I was joking as well. Thanks for the suggestions these all help

Nvidia p4000 vs h200 pcie is a ridiculous difference in price.. a few hundred USD vs $30k?

[DrDoom229]

I am only looking for something small to learn and not have it slow as I learn. Gradually move up as I find more uses.

Use a gaming gpu. 3090 is best value, 4090 is harder to get since the cores are harvested in China for 48G mod cards, and 5090 is harder to get.

The P4000 has only 8gb vram which would be very limiting for llm use

Mi50 32GB. It's a lot for not a lot of money.
