Expected noise: quiet
Tradeoffs and upgrade path
- Long context pushes 24–32B models beyond VRAM.
- The narrow memory bus limits decode throughput compared with used high-end cards.
Upgrade path: The AM5 platform and 750 W PSU support a later efficient 24–32 GB GPU, subject to connector and transient checks.
