I believe we already established that they are making the ram incompatible with the systems of the poor.
Well then I'll jack the motherboards too.
That might just make weirder rigs come to existence.
Multi-user memory-protected operating systems of the "rich" have spread to the machines for the "poor", simply because it's work that can be reused.
If there'll be enough RAM of a certain interface standard on the market due to that being used by all the AI hardware, it will eventually start making sense to produce personal hardware supporting it.
That's something I have not considered! Who will be the first to make a gaming board that uses HBM ?
Do you guys just not have homelabs?
