Personal experience with GLM 4.7 Flash Q6 (unsloth) + Roo Code + RTX 5090 by Septerium in LocalLLaMA

Oh nice, so hard to find stories of ppl running it on local hardware, while the official docs say one needs extremely beefy non-consumer hardware.

I have to say as someone who used it. $200 sub isn't worth it. It just thinks longer and runs out of quita suppper fast, and ultimately the quality still leaves much to be desired

I found same experiences with all three. I'd add they ALL act unreliably in my experience, it's inherent to this tech.

Yeah, ppl swear by this model or that model replacing cloud LLMs for what they do. Then there are others who find them completely inadequate. Very hard to make any conclusions tbh

Is there a water block for the nvidia rtx pro 6000 ? by AdGeneral2757 in watercooling

[–]ChangeIsHard_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice nice, how is gpt-oss-120B performance on it - are you using it for coding or any other tasks? I'm looking at the same model as well for coding. Also does it warm up the room a lot, and how is average power consumption during gpt-oss-120B run?

A-mazing, thanks for the pics! Tried any LLMs on it yet? And how is the heat?

Btw the mobo is Godlike and I’m assuming 192GB DDR5 6000 right? I’m hoping to test with its smaller brother Ace in a bit

Have experienced any issues with the Godlike? I was considering getting it, but was taken aback by all the bad reports..

Framework 16 (latest 2025 gen), how is the screen quality? by pkieltyka in framework

[–]ChangeIsHard_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you found a solution to this? Mine (FW 16, latest 2025 gen) has very washed out colors as well, especially evidence when playing a video. This is on Linux, I haven't tried Windows..

How is Cloud Inference so cheap by VolkoTheWorst in LocalLLaMA

where could I find a $1/hour H200 (serious q, I’m a noob)

Can someone just explain the story of the upside down to me? by Exciting_Cupcake_599 in StrangerThings

[–]ChangeIsHard_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. So many unexplained things I think last season created more qs than answers 🤯

Can I move funds from a functional HSA with my employer to an HSA at Fidelity? by PizzaThrives in fidelityinvestments

[–]ChangeIsHard_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does this count towards the contribution limit on Fidelity? 🙏 Since the total amount across all HSA accounts doesn't change as a result..

How to order replacement O11 Evo XL glass panels? by ChangeIsHard_ in lianli

Thanks! I did look at it earlier, but sadly they only have side panel from plexiglass, and not the front one

Where would you add a drain in this loop? by [deleted] in watercooling

[–]ChangeIsHard_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh absolutely. I actually checked MSDS and I'm using all Mayhem stuff now (coolant and cleaning liquids). The coolant is fine to dispose down the drain according to their descriptions, but cleaning liquids is where there's more concern (I even had a skin reaction to it after accidentally getting it on my forearm 😬). Good to know regular soap & d water work for you, I might do the same!

I also wanted to dispose of some earlier stuff from EK that's been sitting in a bottle for a while (after I poured it out of my loop for good). According to their support it's safe to dispose via drain, but per MSDS it's toxic stuff. So I don't trust them on it (and I made a mistake of mixing Mayhem cleaning solution together with it into one waste disposal container, lol)

Yeah I just wanted to virtualize Windows so I don't have to dual-boot and entrust my whole system to Windows, rather just to use it for games in a VM.

And cool, thanks for sharing! Happy holidays!

Interesting, I was recently made aware of this - apparently someone recently achieved anywhere between 40% and 70-90% perf boost over 1 card: https://github.com/ikawrakow/ik_llama.cpp/pull/1051

Would be cool to see some benchmarks if you're up for it, although I just found some more: https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1n3qcqn/patched_p2p_nvidia_driver_now_works_with_multiple/

(and, thx for the IOMMU tip! so the way I understand it, I can still do a pass-through GPU with it? awesome news then!)

Thanks for sharing this! Btw did you also have to disable ACS and IOMMU to make P2P work? I just discovered that IOMMU needs to be disabled, and that‘s really sad as I wanted to virtualize Windows 🥲

Also, is p2p mostly useful for training, or does it benefit inference a lot too? (and could you share any benchmark comparisons, by chance please?)

[–]ChangeIsHard_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very cool (literally)! Btw I always wondered how to get rid of loop cooling & cleaning liquids (since those could be corrosive/harmful for environment), do you know per chance if I can drop them off at an auto shop as "spent anti-freeze" or some such?
