I wonder if this is frontpage right now because of the other tiiny (the names are similar) video that went viral ... which turns out wasn't an actual product by the tinygrad linked in this post[1]

Adding this to my list of ~beautifully~ designed things to buy when I win the lottery.

I wonder how much has he sold.

Why do I get the impression that I get more bang for the buck by going through OpenRouter? Of course, not anyone can do that and there are security and other concerns.

How does this thing cool down?

I thought there was a typo in the price

Surprising to see this with AMD GPUs considering how George famously threw up his hands as AMD not being worth working with.

Finally, a computer that should be able to run Monster Hunter Wilds with decent performance.

But let’s be real, 12k is kinda pushing it - what kind of people are gonna spend $65k or even $10M (lmao WTAF) on a boutique thing like this. I dont think these kinds of things go in datacenters (happy to be corrected) and they are way too expensive (and probably way too HOT) to just go in a home or even an office “closet”.

Give me token/s for favourite models.

$12,000 gets you 1Gb/s networking and vanilla Ubuntu 24.04. Napkin math on the hardware it looks like margins are around 50% which feels like a school fundraiser where everyone pays what is obviously way more than normal retail price for X because "it's for the children."

I'm not sure what tinygrad is but I assume the markup is because the customer is making a conscious choice to support the tinygrad project. But what's unusual is there is apparently no reason whatsoever to buy this hardware, even if you plan on using tinygrad exclusively for your project. At least with System76 hardware I get (in theory) first class support for Pop!_OS.
