I don’t like EA, but if they keep going in this direction I may start buying some of their games again.

I mean there’s more to a computer than how much RAM it has.

Ok bro

I only see 3rd party sources for pricing, nothing directly from Nvidia. And indeed Framework did say in their presentation that there was no price.

Equivalent as in 128gb of unified RAM targeting casual ML workloads. The price should be on any news article about it.

Hey fellow autist, this isn’t a good look. Tone it down a bit.

I wouldn’t advise gamers to buy one in general, but there’s absolutely a market for them. See https://rog.asus.com/desktops/mini-pc/rog-nuc/ and the broader SFFPC subculture for evidence of that.

96GB on Windows, configurable to more on Linux.

I wouldn’t necessarily say it was designed specifically for ML people though the 128GB spec will definitely draw in that crowd, the 32GB model is $1,099 and competes well in the small but very real “Gaming NUC” space that’s been dominated by Intel/Nvidia laptop gear in tiny desktop cases. Asus took over the NUC line, and the gaming models are priced way above this without the same ML draw of unified RAM.

As one of the people with a different viewpoint that is a completely fair and sensible take.

Mate, I can’t see the goalposts anymore you’ve moved them so far.

Yeah no, you will not be gaming any modern 3D game on that.

lol, lmao

It’s extremely gaming-capable and it is a PC. You can argue it’s not in the traditional mould of gaming PC’s if you want, but it’s by any reasonable definition a “Gaming PC”.

Nvidia’s equivalent (DIGITS) is $2,999.

That is some acrobatic gatekeeping of a GPU that is similar to the PS5 in terms of performance.

Looking at the others in the ultra-SFFPC market segment they’re targeting (e.g. Mac Mini, Intel NUC, Nvidia DIGITS) this is a solid first outing.

It’s a standard ITX mainboard that happens to have soldered ram. It will fit in any ITX-compatible case and even has dedicated PCI-e slot in case you do use a case with space for a PCI-e device like an SFP+ card.

On the upside, the unified ram means the GPU can use it, and so you could run 70b-size models on it.

They took private investment.
