A builder with 768GB of VRAM is asking whether local frontier hardware is already obsolete.

An Epyc owner running twelve 64GB cards plus 256GB of system RAM posted that the only open frontier model that still fits is GLM-5.3, and that upcoming releases including GLM 6 look likely to be two trillion parameters or more. A parallel thread on whether to spend $15k on a home server now ended with the poster editing in a decision to wait. Read next to AMD's 576GB pitch, the local-inference ceiling is now set by model size outrunning consumer memory, not by bandwidth (r/LocalLLaMA).
