Anybody in Auckland have one of these they'd like to sell? Or two even?

 

Also open to any other sort of GPU with over 20GB of RAM at a reasonably good price

FYI these seem to sell for around $1700 (each).

I have 3 x 12GB RTX 3060s if that helps. $1100 for all three. I realise this isnt what you are asking for, but it looks like you are actually after VRAM for running LLMs rather than compute.

Reasonable price is going to be difficult, the last auction for a rtx 4090 on trademe went for $4200.

 

Otherwise it’s AMD’s 7900 24GB line if you aren't after nvidia specifically.

Spartan, yeahhhh I know a 4090 probably won't work for me (unless I get lucky with pricing as I'd spend a few hundred more on a 4090 but not thousands more than a 3090), but I'd be ok with paying 1700 for a 3090 as cddt suggested 

 

Daniel, hmmmm... not what I had in mind, but maaaaaybe?

 

Will need to research if 3x 3060 will work with my case/PSU, and what sort of speed hit and extra complexity overhead this will mean.

 

Are you in Auckland?

Not badly priced at ~$1500 at the moment as well

PB Tech does seem to put the cheapest model on sale from time to time at ~$1399.

I have a GALAX GeForce RTX 3090 with original retail packaging for $1950 and I also have an ASUS TUF GeForce RTX 4090 original retail packaging for $4000.

 

Both work great, no issues. The 3090 was used in a gaming rig, the 4090 used exclusively for AI. Prices are firm but I can look at listing them on Trade Me if you want to buy them using Ping, if you cover the fee.

 

Reach out to me if you're interested.
