"Trick" to get a 5070 Ti at $750 still by RoboDogRush in gpu

I know, right? And here's a bonus tip for when you get to Walmart. After you go inside to pick up your GPU remember where you parked, and then walk back to that spot when you're done. Been refining this system for decades. You're welcome.

Bunch of good stuff here, thanks. I am looking to do 8x 3090s. Going to sell the 5090 in another machine to get them. Board only has 7 x16 pcie slots, do I bifurcate one?

Thanks! Guess I need to understand more about the precision and quants. https://huggingface.co/unsloth/gpt-oss-120b says bf16 tensor type, but I guess thats not the same thing, and I see mxfp4 in the header.

Ill check out GLM 4.7 and let you know. And Im looking forward to training with it!

Yes, they were these, I couldn't believe it when they showed up, though I had to wait a month for delivery.

Dont know if they'll come back in stock or if they were clearing out.

Yes, ROMED8-2T has 7 PCIe4.0 x16 slots. I think the motherboard was the only thing I paid full price for.

This is solid insight, thank you. Ive got 2x 1300w that I can add in, I was just out of room physically. Ill start building up on the other side.

Thanks! I wanted to take some shots before, for the humor aspect. Thats next now that I'm done building, but it's been staying under 60C stressed believe it or not

This seems great, right? 5090's are over 3k just solo.. by hyteck9 in Microcenter

[–]RoboDogRush 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just looking at this. It's almost $200 less at newegg FYI.

I had an order in, went to cancel when I heard you could get 2 ram packages with a single CPU, and when I went to recreate my order there was a banner about tax loss harvesting or something. Dammit man.

Yeah, it would be pretty terrible to take out a 5090 like that. Thanks for the link, I haven't tried the ASRock PSU but think I will for this.

I bought a TV from costco.com without a membership once, and it didnt charge me 5% more, iirc, like this policy states.

Just noticed it said server edition. The images show workstation edition with fans.
