      I gonna add some RAM with hope I can split original 70b between GPU and RAM. 8b is great what it is as is

      Looks like it should be possible, not sure how much performance hit offloading to RAM will do. Fafo

      I have a home server with 140 gigs of RAM, it was surprisingly cheap. It’s an HP z6 with the 6146 gold xeon processor.

      I found a seller who was selling it with a low spec silver and 16 gigs of RAM for like 250 bucks.

      Found the processor upgrade for about $120 and spend another $150 on 128gb of second-hand ECC ddr4.

      I think the total cost was something like $700 after throwing a couple of 8 TB hard drives in.

      I’ve also placed a Nvidia 4070 in it, which I got doing some horse trading.

      How close am I on the specs to being able to run the 70b version?
