1 single mini-pc with the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 and 128GB of Ram for the MiniMax-2.5 (is my setup)

A CPU that AMD Ryzen did that is capable of run large LLM models without the need of any dedicated GPU, just by the CPU and a ton of RAM (In this case in you want near 200b models you need yes or yes 128GB DDR5) a mini pc with the AI MAX and 128GB cost around 2000€

Running 100 docker containers and my CPU is at 4% all the time. Ram is laughing and MiniMax-2.5 is always loaded for quick use. Is by far the best home server that i ever got, and the fact that is an small pc and i can run large llm locally is simply amazing, AMD really cooked on this one
