This sub-$100 headless Nvidia card is the ultimate low-profile hardware mod

[Redaktion]

A new hardware mod repurposes the 75 W Nvidia Tesla P4 for small-form-factor gaming. By combining Bazzite OS and a custom 3D-printed cooling shroud, this affordable enterprise GPU manages 1080p performance in a compact Dell chassis.

It's a 10 year-old GPU, not completely useless but definitely not gaming material at all.

Must be a slow news day in tech when every news site starts broadcasting whatever idiotic fad some influencer desperate for attention came up with.

I've 4 of these for inference for about $200 (know where to look/wait for discounts) they're quite capable at 10-14 tokens per second for 8K context on 70B or better MoE with CPU offload for higher quants. Having four means they have 32GB of GPU RAM in total for inference for a single LLM model.
Admittedly I'm running this in an old Xeon which allows this many GPUs on PCIe, and may not be able to get this many on a desktop CPU, but either way, Geforce 1070TI level performance and low power draw is still pretty much a bargain, especially when you can't even get 8GB of RAM for $50.
