The AMD GPU in some Frameworks have 8GB of vram.
It’s integrated graphics so it uses up to half of the system RAM. I have 96GB of system ram, so 48GB of VRAM. I bought it last year before the insane price hikes, when it was within reach to normal people like me.
I’ve tried it and it works. I can load huge models. Bigger than 48GB even. The ones bigger than 48GB run really slow, though. Like one token per second. But the ones that can fit in the 48GB are pretty decent. Like 6 tokens per second for the big models, if I’m remembering correctly. Obviously, something like an 8b parameter model would be way faster, but I don’t really have a use for those kinds of models.
