💻 ** $200 'socketed' Nvidia AI GPU for servers hacked into a PCIe card with custom PCB and 3D-printed cooling — modded Tesla V100 SMX data center GPU runs AI LLMs and is more efficient than many modern midrange offerings in AI inference **
Turns out, Nvidia's older Turing-era V100 AI GPU is still pretty capable today, even with just 16GB of VRAM. A YouTuber got his hands on the SMX variant for just $100, converted it to a PCIe x16 interface for another $100 with an adapter, and got some pretty impressive results ac...
