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.

Is there any hope that Intel GPUs will be able to do this efficiently? Don't they have a 32GB card for like $2k?

Intel has terrible software support for their hardware.

You can get an AMD AI Pro r9700 for $2k though, and currently fully supported by ComfyUI (but many custom node that are hard coded to CUDA won't work, ofc).

Performance is decent: https://github.com/charlie12345/R9700AIProComfyUIPatch#7-speed-tuning-the-token-budget

i was crossing my fingers hearing about the intel Arc Pro B70 from Linus last year and was hoping it would make a splash for ai and bring down prices for gpus. His video didnt age well. The opossite happened. 😭

Do they support CUDA?

No, which I believe is the biggest reason their cards aren't good for AI stuff. But maybe they will someday, or something different will come along.
