A motherboard can't have more lanes than the CPU supports (unless they're chipset ones, but that's really not something you'd want to use since the chipset itself most of the time is connected to the CPU via PCIe 4.0 x4). As for PCIe 5.0 x8/x8, Asus ProArt X870E-CREATOR WIFI supports it, but be aware that the GPU itse...

Unless you're tensor-splitting or swapping models into VRAM constantly, frankly, PCIe 3.0 is fine. Consider an X99 dual LGA2011-3 motherboard.

You can get many generation old xeon chips and stations, I have seen local setups going this route. Not the fastest, and is second hand, but if cost is your biggest dealbreaker you can consider.

I tried the ASUS PROART X870E-Creator for a build with two RTX 5090 and ended up returning it because the second slot was blocked by the first GPU (RTX 5090, 3.5 slots) so you cannot even connect a riser. Very disappointing for a "creator" board.

Correct, or you can utilize the bottom slot as a x16 if fitment of let's say, a Samsung 9100 pro with heatsink obstruct placement. Or the gpu requires three slots and completely blocks the pcie release latch, as the lite 3dition doesn't have the EZ latch.

CPUs only have a certain number of pci lanes available. A pci x16 slot consumes 16 lanes, so 2 slots needs 32 lanes on the cpu. All your consumer CPUs have less than 32. Generally 20. So thats why you get motherboards offering 1 pci slot at x16 or 2 slots x8, with a x4 Nvme. The chipset itself will also have a numbe...

I have the ProArt because of reasons but for a mobo it's really expensive. Maybe a workstation mobo is a better investment.

Depends on which gen your drives are: 1x NVME 5.0 - standalone 1x NVME 5.0 - shared with PCIE x16 slot 2 2x NVME 4.0 - chipset If you leave the second NVME 5.0 drive unpopulated, you shoukd be fine.

Workstation MoBo is a whole another level. You need to get the workstation memory which is 2-3x more expensive than consumer DDR5 and those CPUs ain't cheap either. I just wanted to run a dual GPU config so ProArt worked for me. Also it has a lot of really cool features like DP in.

I am not aware of any consumer class motherboards with dual PCIe x16 slots that actually run both slots at x16. The issue is that the consumer class CPUs do not have enough PCIe lanes to support two x16 slots without an expensive PCIe switch. You can find motherboards with two physical PCIe 5.0 x16 slots that run at x8...

x79 only supports PCIe 2.0, x99 and x299 only support PCIe 3.0. TRX40 supports PCIe 4.0, so could be a good option if you are using PCIe 4.0 GPUs. If you have PCIe 5.0 GPUs you can use a consumer class motherboard with dual PCI 5.0 x8 slots (electrically) and get equivalent bandwidth to dual PCI 4.0 x16 slots.

it's kind of "fake" though in the sense that the third x8 slot is hosted behind the chipset and so the bandwidth to the CPU is bottlenecked by DMI link. It's kinda lame. the only benefit it has is if you want to bifurcate it into x4x4 and like the routing. because nothing about it is any different. 4.0 x4 DMI link from...

reply to your deleted reply... cpu has 24 lanes... 4 used for the DMI. 16 for the x16 slot. 4 for the main M.2. No more to go around. third slot runs off DMI. It's a complete FAKE NEWS x8 slot, and there is no ambiguity there.

Torrents still use torrent sites for discovery, central index is much faster and easier. Small 300M LLM's won't chat in productive sense

Sybil resistance is the first thing I'd worry about tbh, without a central index, what's stopping someone from flooding the gossip layer with embeddings crafted to be semantically close to everything? Signed announcements help with identity but not volume. Also curious how cross-device embedding compatibility works in...

Thank you. For the first question I'm working on delete centroids from embeddings. For the second question the embeddings model must be the same for everyone. For the third comment yeah I think is the fundaments for agentic P2P ai! Anyway, the project is real and open source here: https://github.com/Helldez/Resonanc...

The 300m model is only for embedding model to translate text in semantic meaning

I would rather store 10M search stubs, each max 1000 tokens long, compressed, and indexed by an embedding model. Then when I need to search I just find the stub and it contains links to important sites in that topic, search engines, forums, feeds, APIs - all good entry points. The stub does not carry information, but i...
