- manquer 5y agoThose are material science and physical limitations. Number of parameters in a neural network is not really limited that way, doing useful compute with it is a different matter
- sanxiyn 5y agoYes for CPU, no for RAM. You can buy a computer with terabytes of RAM just fine. It's just expensive.
- soganess 5y agoExpensive is a really relative term right about now... 64gb DDR4 LRDIMMs could be had for about 250$ each on eBay before the chip shortage. While that price is a "good-ish deal", it really wasn't unheard of. A search I just did returns more than a few hits... Now compare to single GPU prices...
