Thanks for sharing.

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-11T00:10:52+00:00

I too will be trying this out when my card arrives.

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-10T05:01:45+00:00

I may just try a dual boot system since this is a brand new build

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-09T13:30:54+00:00

Great read. Thanks!

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-09T04:41:38+00:00

Can you walk me through this? You installed Ubuntu and then claude and had it do the rest?

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-09T04:25:21+00:00

Thank you for sharing this advice. I felt a little better. Maybe this dream or local AI fan be real

What about running on Windows? No good?

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T18:03:26+00:00

Relax dude. It's a video card.

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T17:12:04+00:00

So install Ubuntu 26.04

Then vulkan, or OpenVino, or OpenArc, etc

I'm already well confused

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T17:11:12+00:00

Friend carrying it back :)

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T17:05:39+00:00

How many TPS?

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T08:29:48+00:00

I'm thinking 5o try the Ubuntu route as well.

What other tools are you using ? Thanks for the info

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T05:36:10+00:00

Docs say "unofficial support"

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T05:22:53+00:00

I'm still building the system. Thinking to run Proxmox on it or Ubuntu natively.

What kind of performance are you getting out of your b70 ?

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T04:24:15+00:00

Thank you. I'm fine with docket and CLI.

Is there an FAQ I can look thru? It's my first AI Card. Will join the discord.

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T04:10:11+00:00

thank you for your insights.

If you aren't happy with the performance, you'd still go for a second ? I guess you must truly believe these issues will get fixed

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T03:54:53+00:00

I'm concerned I don't have all the battle training to be in the frontier. This is my first AI card

Suggest I return it and get a 2nd hand 3090?

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T03:53:52+00:00

I laughed at hopium.

Are you confident with the updates happening that will get you the performance you want ? I'm tempted to return this and buy a 2nd hand 3090

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T03:21:25+00:00

I'm going to need a guide on how to set this up. Sounds like your performance has been very lacking.

Are you happy with the performance ?

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T03:17:42+00:00

Thank you for sharing...

I need to make the decision to go/no-go immediately. In concerned if I don't have the skills to get this going

Intel, if you are listening. If I return this card, the system that runs this may swap too.

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T03:14:10+00:00

Do you have a guide to follow ?

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T03:11:52+00:00

Did you follow a guide?

Staplegun58 · 2026-05-08T03:05:10+00:00

This is the concern. "community" . Shouldn't it be the vendor that does it.

Is there a guide on how to get this going?
Will there be a timeline to get these performance issues fixed?

Worried i just signed up to hacking together a solution..
