    I think I read somewhere that you’ll basically need 130 GB of RAM to load this model. You could probably get some used server hardware for less than $600 to run this.

      Oh if only it were so simple lmao, you need ~130GB of VRAM, aka the graphics card RAM. So you would need about 9 consumer grade 16GB graphics cards and you’ll probably need Nvidia because of fucking CUDA so we’re talking about thousands of dollars. Probably approaching 10k

      Ofc you can get cards with more VRAM per card, but not in the consumer segment so even more $$$$$$

      Unless you’re getting used datacenter grade hardware for next to free, I doubt this. You need 130 gb of VRAM on your GPUs
