Supposedly you can hack the B580 to support SR-IOV but what's the point?

ljl@ 5090mos with HALF the VRAM

EDIT: 2/3 the VRAM but still, 32gb is shit

There's no other consumer-friendly GPU that runs with this. Nvidia has nothing in its lineup that competes with this AT ALL

PS the second comment is only relevant if you're running a $2000 Xeon with ECC RAM or an Intel consumer CPU with no ECC support. Anyone using ECC on AMD (99% of people using ECC RAM) don't have an iGPU or a modern dGPU that supports SR-IOV.

If you want ECC + SR-IOV on a GPU with 48GB for less than $20k, Intel's got your back.

After giving this some more thought there's no way to use this card with ECC RAM unless you're running it in a Xeon or Epyc system, because AM5 doesn't support ECC RAM like AM4, and AM4 doesn't have the bandwidth to support this card.

So Intel and AMD owners are equally fucked. I keep forgetting AMD killed ECC support on AM5 for no reason, ljl

B50 copped. Can't wait to see how small it is. Draws all the power it needs out of the slot so they're easy to put in a cluster.

Also I was wrong the B580 cannot be hacked to support dat SR-IOV
