I understand the B70 is a bargain vs AMD and especially nVidia offerings, but to me it feels like I would be buying something that would feel too limited in less than a year. 48G would be much more confortable.
And I know the 96G nVidia cards are selling for over 10k$.
The future can’t arrive fast enough!
32GB is perfect for models around 30B parameters. Since qwen has really hit the spot with their 27B dense models, I think it's a good bet. Also, 32GB is enough for other tasks such as image/video generation and loading multiple smaller specialized models
You can buy two b60s for $1300 right now (650 each) if you want a total of 48gb. Intel recently raised the price on all of their gpu's except the b60 series, so they are currently the best deal per gb I think.
