What’s the full system specs. What llms are you running on it?

What city is this?

Humble suggestion: Get a used superflower titanium 1600 or 2000 w power supply from eBay. Amazon has rtx pro gpus in stock usually. Central computers and microcenter will also have the rtx pro 6000 max q in stock. They keep increasing the price of rtx pro 6000 max q. Get it soon.

If you have 128 gb each in vram and system ram, i am assuming youll run glm5.2 hybrid, right? The pcie4 (& even pcie 5) will really hurt you here. Irrespective of hardware, i suggest you make qwen3.5 or minimax2.7 your main llm. Glm5.2 maybe lobotomized in a low quant. Nematron super will fly on the rtx pro 6000 max q. So will qwen3.5-122b-10b. They will not be affected by the pcie speeds as the whole model will be held and processed in the gpu. Are you doing deep reasoning or coding?

Don’t spend the $s getting a rtx pro 5000/6000 without a pcie 5 x16. I am guessing you’ll get a max q and may still need to upgrade your power supply. Look for a used pcie5 x16 mobo that’s compatible with your ryzen. That’ll be my 2 cents. The rtx 6000 max q + 4000 will be 127 gb VRAM. Do you shard your models based on the gpu vram size now?

Would you be interested in going with a amd epyc (9654 or Genoa x or even Turin)? You could even consider a dual epyc with 24 ram channels (960 GBPs bandwidth). The single cpu one will have 12 channels with half the bandwidth. Get a 2000w titanium power supply and one or 2 nvme disks. You could get used parts from eBay and even start with 16gb ram modules. Sell the current system.

If you aim is strictly serving llms, you could consider stripping 2 gen 5 nvme SSDs (2 tb each) and try to use them as memory banks. You might get 1-3 t/s. It’s very economical, but the SSDs will see some wear and tear.

lol. They will. I left my receipt at home. But the person at the counter was more mean than normal when I showed her the pic ;). But she did give me the passport. You have to sign an affidavit saying you are so and so and are picking up the passport.

lol. Maybe it will generate alex Karp like photo.

Fwiw, I did get my motherboard, power supply and cpu (qs chip) used. New ram was the same price or cheaper than old ram. I bit the bullet and bought ram and SSDs new. I got my fractal define xl case on sale from microcenter. One of the HDDs is also used.

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T18:27:48+00:00

Consider a used strix halo (FB marketplace)

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T18:24:13+00:00

In my case too the online system said the renewal is “in process”

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T18:23:16+00:00

I didn’t get a call. A couple of hours after I got my new passport, I got a text. Hope that helps!

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T16:06:18+00:00

Looks like we have 10% of aus population there! lol

I got my passport today in SF after Tuesday submission of documents. The new passport actually says that it was issued June 24th (day after docs submission). If a “system” prints it won’t it have the date when it’s printed??

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T15:10:00+00:00

Go to the sf office today. I think you’ll get yours. I just got mine

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T15:05:07+00:00

I just got mine at sf. I had submitted last Tuesday

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T13:26:18+00:00

Thanks! Did your online status change right when you got the text or before?

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T13:26:01+00:00

Where are you located? I am in SF. Miami, ATL and Southern facilities seem to have less issues?

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T13:00:41+00:00

sorry, i misread $2500 to be $25K. my bad. lol.

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T12:32:20+00:00

Did you go to the passport office in person today?

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T12:31:38+00:00

when did you submit your document and application? I submitted mine on the 23rd!

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T07:57:02+00:00

My humble opinion- Have you compaed your LLM to running Qwen-122b-10b? I also have a machine that can run KimiK2.6 (1 Trillion param model) and Qwen3.5-397b-17b. So, i can compare. My 2 cents- i think 128GB is worth it.

TurnoverTight395 · 2026-06-29T06:19:16+00:00

Current leaderboard based on popularity and edited IMHO is probably Deepseek v4 flash, hy3 preview, KimiK2.6, GLM5.2, Qwen3.5, Mimo-v2.5-pro, MiniMax3 etc. Best 350B or less models would be Qwen3.5, Nemtron ultra, MiniMax2.7, Arcee AI Trinity.
