If cpu processing is slow af, and gpu takes $$$$ to get enough memory for larger models; I am wondering if an APU could deliver some of that gpu speed, but using cheaper ram to get the larger models in memory; with 128gb of ram, that’s the equivalent of 6x 30/4090s, without allowing for overhead at least!

Wondering if anyone has got any current apu benchmarks vs cpu/gpu? Do you know if the GPU side of APU architecture can be used to get an increase over traditional CPU results?

I’ve been seeing a lot of claims that the ryzen 8000 series is going to be competing with low end Gpus, some people think all the way up to 3060.

If it’s possible to do, it might be the new best way to get large models working for cheap?
