I’ve a minipc running an AMD 5700U where I host some services, including ollama and openwebui.

Unfortunately the support of rocm isn’t quite there yet and not to mention that of mobile GPUs.

Surprisingly the prompts work when configured to use the CPU, but the speed is just… well, not good.

So, what’d be a cheap and energy efficient setup to run sone kind of LLM for personal use, but still get decent speed?

I was thinking about getting an e-gpu case, but I’m not sure about how solid this would end up.

    It would the first scenario you described… i’d just interact with a chatbot occasionally like I do with chatgpt now…but I’d also like to try to experiment with copilot like models to test and use with vscode. So no training of models or 24/7 batch operations.

    I was wondering whether a custom built gaming PC is the only solution here or if there are other cjeaper alternatives that get the job decently done
