I'm glad you guys are sharing some money around, but I really have a hard time thinking of a person with "Dual 4090s" as "GPU Poor". LOL

- capableweb 3y agoIt's all relative. Compared to the huge companies spending thousands per month/week/day on GPU usage, having two 4090s (which you could acquire for like ~$3000) could be considered on the lower end for sure.
- jacquesm 3y agoDepending on where you live what you pay for power may well be a bigger factor than what you've paid for the hardware.

- qntty 3y agoI interpret "GPU poor" the same way as "house poor", i.e. you're poor (lack cash) because you've use it to purchase GPUs, not that you don't have enough GPUs.
- KaoruAoiShiho 3y agoNo, GPU poor comes from this definition: https://www.businessinsider.com/gpu-rich-vs-gpu-poor-tech-companies-in-each-group-2023-8 https://www.businessinsider.com/gpu-rich-vs-gpu-poor-tech-co... Less than 10k H100s makes you GPU poor. The author is presumably using it as a proxy for "possible to achieve AGI".
