This post is part “hear me out” and part asking for advice.

Looking at the table above AI gpus are a pure scam, and it would make much more sense to (atleast looking at this) to use gaming gpus instead, either trough a frankenstein of pcie switches or high bandwith network.

so my question is if somebody has build a similar setup and what their experience has been. And what the expected overhead performance hit is and if it can be made up for by having just way more raw peformance for the same price.

    Thanks!
    That helps when I eventually get around to standing up my own AI server.

    Right now I can’t really justify the cost for my low volume of use, when I can get CloudFlare free tier access to mid-sized models. But it’s something want to bring into my homelab instead for better control and privacy.
