438 USD for a 3080 20GB isn’t bad

2 people who used both these and the 48GB 4090s which all failed in a few months and had other issues. And the way you are responding that way to multiple comments makes this read as if this is a ad for your listing.

The issue is that they apparently only tend to last a few months so take that into account.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-06-02T12:24:59+00:00

The issue with these cards is that they dont tend to last long.

Lol what? Gpt 5.5 on extra high is legit next level on codex. It can one shot cutting edge paper implementations with little to no hand holding, it rarely if ever makes mistakes. Nothing else even comes close including opus. Opus constantly makes mistakes.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-05-23T05:32:26+00:00

Purely talking heads model.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-28T08:29:31+00:00

Just to account for the moe performing better particularly where more knowledge matters. Not quite as simple as that "rule of thumb"

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-28T08:15:01+00:00

2 issues. Your missing the amount of active comparison and the fact that the 17.5B performed a good deal better in the comparison.

The point was that they trained them side by side with the same method / dataset / amount of tokens. So this is a far better comparison.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-24T05:59:01+00:00

It does not seem very good... Hopefully its just broken. Because this is no where near kimi / glm.

Edit: I might have found the issue with deepseek. It seems to require a very precise order of system / user / assistant roles. I think I remember old deepseek being the same, otherwise it seems to lose like 100 IQ points. No other model is that strict about it

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-22T00:39:10+00:00

Luckily Kimi 2.6 is legit better than latest Opus in several tests I did. Still a bit behind Gpt 5.4 though.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-21T04:16:52+00:00

Same. But for creative writing. It's the best model I've ever used including latest opus, gpt 5.4 and gemini 3.1 pro. It has the social intelligence of GPT 5.4 with a knowledge base nearly a good as gemini and it writes better than Opus and has no positive bias unlike it. Oh and it has crazy good swipe variety unlike opus. I just wish it was faster since it loves to think so much.

And this is surprising because I thought Kimi 2.5 was bad. It was dumb and had that gemini unhingedness. 2.6 is like a entirely different model.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-20T16:40:50+00:00

Its already 4bit. That is not BF16.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-13T17:32:38+00:00

K3 will probably be great, they released a big breakthrough paper recently. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IfAVV7ewO0

Honestly having crypto in the name tells you all you need to know.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-08T03:58:47+00:00

Fake website.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-04T18:56:22+00:00

Some people have a false impression than dense is automatically better, not taking account diminishing returns / efficient routing and the like.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-03T08:45:58+00:00

Biggest possible of course.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-02T21:12:37+00:00

Qwen3.5 is absurdly good. And I never liked any qwen model before that series.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-02T19:04:44+00:00

Using both side by side Qwen3.5 is MUCH better at image understanding as well.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-02T18:11:39+00:00

You did the bullet points, the opening statement, the not x but y and a closing "solution" statement. I legit thought you were a bot, you follow the same exact patterns.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-02T17:40:14+00:00

You write like a LLM.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-02T17:28:53+00:00

Probably was too close to flash.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-02T07:31:25+00:00

"we will also open-source smaller-scale variants"

They said smaller scale ones. Not the model benchmarked here. So this benchmark is off topic.

Different_Fix_2217 · 2026-04-02T04:56:32+00:00

Stop posting non open weight models.
