That’s pretty awesome!

Though only 5gig Ethernet? Can’t they do usb-c / thunderbolt 40 Gb/s connections like Macs?

I appreciate them showcasing Framework Computer hardware, but they would have got 40 GB/s network performance if they had chosen the Minisorum MS-S1 Max: https://www.minisforum.com/pages/new-release-ms-s1-max-ryzen...

Does the network speed matter that much when TFA talks about outputting a few tens of tokens per second? Ain't 5 Gbit/s plenty for that? (I understand the need to load the model but that'd be local already right?)

I really wonder if AMD is going to keep getting walloped on the interconnect or if they'll start upping what's available to consumers, at some point.
