Hiya,
Recently upgraded my server to an i5-12400 CPU, and have neen wanting to push my server a bit. Been looking to host my own LLM tasks and workloads, such as building pipelines to scan open-source projects for vulnerabilities and insecure code, to mention one of the things I want to start doing. Inspiration for this started after reading the recent scannings of the Curl project.
Sidenote: I have no intention of swamping devs with AI bugreports, i will simply want to scan projects that i personally use to be aware of its current state and future changes, before i blindly update apps i host.
What budget friendly GPU should i be looking for? Afaik VRAM is quite important, higher the better. What other features do i need to be on the look out for?


I heard about people using multiple used 3090s in a single motherboard for this. Apparently it delivers a lot of bang for the buck, as compared to a single card with loads of VRAM.
