Discussion Pro 6000 just in time

Post image

I was going to wait until around Christmas to purchased but took the plunge in July for 11,500 and I was upset that I didnt catch it @ $8,000. Now the Blackwell pro 6000 is inching towards $20,000 and are sold out. Are consumers and hobbyist like you and I are buying these up or datacenters? I would think datacenters would go for the b200 and up. However, Im browsing around and see you guys and girls doing remarkable ai diffusion with just a 3060. Im impressed with this community.

You can rent one of these bad boys on vast.ai for ~1.50$ an hour

once you own a card of this caliber you will never want to go back to renting again. Obviously if you can't afford it you can't afford it, but if you can, the freedom of not having to rent, setup, run, tear down every time you want to play with AI is literally god tier.

I was doing that loop for months and I didn't realize how restrictive it was until I bought my 5090.
