A r/LocalLLaMA user showcased a quad RTX Pro Max-Q workstation build (73 upvotes, 28 comments), noting the thermal output has turned the setup into a 'home office radiator.' The build is notable for using the Max-Q variant — typically a laptop GPU — in a desktop configuration, with the conspicuous caveat of only 64GB system RAM. Community discussion centers on whether the Max-Q's lower TDP makes quad configurations more practical for sustained inference workloads compared to full-power desktop cards.
