Like an AMD version of an RTX A6000? Granted $4500 still isn’t “cheap” but for a dual slot blower card with great performance and 48GB they do really well in the mid-range of ML. I don’t really pay attention to AMD cards anymore. I’m not a gamer and every time over the past five years I’ve put a toe in the water of the disaster that is ROCm, their drivers, “support” in frameworks, etc I run back to CUDA. It really seems like AMD has ceded everything other than supercomputer cluster ML to Nvidia and CUDA. They do well in gaming and they can sell and support the extremely high end of ML with mostly bespoke applications that have teams of professional support and institutional backing. When you’re spending $100 million or whatever on hardware flop/$ really counts and you can throw people at making it work. In the low to mid ranges of ML the 25% or even 50% savings on hardware is quickly lost when compared to the human time sink that is the entire AMD ML “ecosystem”. If you’re buying 10 GPUs you’re talking about saving what, $20K? That “savings” gets wrecked really quickly when you look at salaries and time spent chasing yet another bug/quirk/showstopper with ROCm.
