You need memory on the GPU, not in the system itself (unless you have unified memory such as the M-architecture). So we're talking about cards like the H200 that have 141GB of memory and cost between 25 to 40k.

Did you casually glance at how the hardware in the Framework Desktop (Strix Halo) works before commenting?

I didn't glace at it, I read it :-) The architecture is a 'unified memory bus', so yes the GPU has access to that memory.

My comment was a bit unfortunate as it implied I didn't agree with yours, sorry for that. I simply want to clarify that there's a difference between 'GPU memory' and 'system memory'.

The Frame.work desktop is a nice deal. I wouldn't buy the Ryzen AI+ myself, from what I read it maxes out at about 60 tokens / sec which is low for my use cases.

These don't run 200B models at all, results show it can run 13B at best. 70B is ~3 tk / s according to someone on Reddit.
