V620s were a good deal when you could get them for $350, now they’re $700+ and no longer a good deal.
There just aren’t any good deals any more. Prices for everything have gone crazy in the last few months. For coding LLMs the cloud services may now be the least worst value, by design, until they hike the prices.
That said, I still just paid way too much for a used graphics card so I could do many things locally, because I just don’t want to give the likes of Sam Altman a single penny.
Oh wow you aren’t kidding. The dude I bought from on eBay @ $350 in February is sold out now. Guess I retract my statement.
This AI pricing is wrecking every deal on the market lol
