* 32GB of memory - best option * OpenVINO is a pretty good tool, windows users up-and-running in minutes * Decent speed - think 5060 but with 32GB of ram.. * For AI workloads, great budget option! * openvino.. sentence embeddings I have between the two are nearly identical * Lower power than other brands * EXCELLENT in linux 7 / ubuntu 26.04 - 0 setup needed. Just worked OOTB. 0 issues.

A few of the best features: The card doesn't run hot and the fan isn't loud under load. Low power consumption even when under load, and this card is support by Ollama (Intel Version) and LML Studio you just need to enable the Vulkan ccp, the tokens are very generous depending on the model used. For gaming, it holds a decent 50 - 60 fps for Cyber Punk, however, when you add a second video card and use Lossless Scaling (basically pairing up a cheap low end GPU with a better GPU (like this one) my fps went from 50 - 60 to 75 - 155 fps... Outstanding... This card is everything I hoped it would be and then some, and for only $380 it can be beat...

Low power draw (300w max) along with 2 space width makes this an easy card to double up in a chassis for use with larger models.

For a server case that isn't the size of a bar fridge, fit the physical space requirements I needed. Excellent airflow and having side fans specifically for video cards is a plus (even though I'm not using it for crypto mining).

- Easy to setup - Plenty of Support - Works on Ubuntu/Win11 easily Ollama/LM Studio - Gemma 4:26b - Flux 2


-Big. - Intelligently Designed - Able to fit the Artic Freezer 2 420mm AIO... Barely as long as you do a push pull config of the AIO in order to provide the clearance. - Simple and Well Designed. No PSU shroud so you have more usable space to build. -Lightweight for the size


Fantastic gpu. Under like 99% usage, temps are about 60* degrees C. Can run 1440p and even 4k as long as you use x3/x4 frame gen which has little input lag. Also, it ships with ECC automatically turned on so it will say 21 gb vram. Just download intel pro graphics software and you disable it in the settings, then it should say 24.

IPMI alone has to be the biggest feature! Board looks built to last decades

-reasonable cost -two m.2 slots -form factor -IPMI

- Price. - 8 3.5" internal drive bays. - Solid build

Very well designed.

Lots of room in this case. Pre-installed fans

All the features you could ever want. Has sensors for days! HTML5 WebUI for Remote Console to your OS!

At the time of writing this case undercuts competitor budget rack mount 4U cases by $140. And at that price point it is a steal. The case came with no observed defects. Next to no special features but thats what I wanted. The drive cases are functional enough. The panels are light duty but dont flex much under moderate pressure. Mine came with 3 fans: 1x 120 and 2x 60s which are basic but they work. The locking front at this price point is fantastic. It wont stop someone determined but it keeps the power switches protected. Overall exactly what I expected and wanted in this price point.


96Gb of vram and energy efficient
