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
