I think the only thing its lacking compared to the base PS5 is memory bandwidth (256GB/s vs 448GB/s) but in exchange you get much lower latency. Everything else is a massive upgrade over the PS5. The cores are way newer, clocked higher, and you can get twice as many. The CUs are newer, clocked higher, and more numerous as well. It can be specced up to 8x the ram of the PS5.
Is there a workload where that 75% more bandwidth is more important than raw perf or access to more than 16GB of ram?
- HachiWari8 2y agoYes, running LLMs.
- enragedcacti 2y agoI know that higher bandwidth is good for LLMs but are there actual workstation use cases where the speed outweighs the context and parameter limits imposed by 16GB of total system ram? I don't follow it that closely but it just feels to me like quality >>> quantity for laptops or mini PCs where an APU would be relevant.
