Tried to make my 2x3090 setup look nice, and didn’t want to suffocate the fans sine it’d be sitting next to me. Did I do okay?
It’s not much compared to a lot of the builds here but I really didn’t want to deal with fan noise having my server right next to me. Decided I wanted something pretty and quiet. I found a fb marketplace listing for this beautiful white ASUS 3090 for only $600 120 miles drive away and he offered to throw in the fans and case for free! Awesome guy.
My biggest regret is selling 64gb of ddr5 that I got as part of my bundle months back before the ram went up thinking I wouldn’t need 128gb… oops.

The "just wait 6 months" argument from 2025 survived exactly one iteration
Throughout 2025 the standard response to any complaint about an LLM was some version of "just wait 3-6 months, the next generation will handle this effortlessly." The argument was everywhere. Every limitation was temporary, every missing capability was a few iterations away, every autonomous agent demo was a preview of imminent reality.
It's April 2026 now and worth checking how that held up.
On r/ClaudeAI this week there's a long thread about Opus 4.7 where multiple users argue it's a regress

Mistral Medium 3.5 on AMD Strix Halo: Painfully Slow (Plan for Overnight Runs)
Someone actually tested Mistral Medium 3.5 on AMD's new Strix Halo chip, and the results are... not great. For a 48k-token prompt with 4k thinking tokens, it took about 2 hours just to get an answer about code architecture. Yeah, you read that right—two hours. The takeaway: if you want to run this locally on Strix Halo, queue it up before bed. The technical setup involved heavy optimization (Q5_K_XL quantization, GPU acceleration with -ngl 999, cache reuse), but even with all that tuning, it's still a crawl. Not exactly the "instant local AI" dream, but hey, at least it works.
