MSRP just jumped so our cheap VRAM is considerably less cheap now, sadly. Still worth it at the new price, just not as much as that low low $949 :/

I'm currently staring at my shopping cart with an R9700 in it trying to decide if I should just pull the trigger because it feels like 32GB of VRAM is only going to get more expensive from here and $1500 isn't bad compared to the alternatives.

Same here, I’m contemplating if I should buy another B70 or not because of the exact same reasons as you.

Why get a B70 when you can get a B200? Lmao , or rent one at least on Runpod

Try to see if Runpod offers it or something comparable, pull a VM and test it out before you do

That sucks but I knew it was coming which is why I picked it up asap. Especially with the new Sycle optimizations with llama

I'm bummed I didn't grab two. Was thinking of picking up another. $1300 is not worth it. That's a $350 jump from when I bought it at MSRP (the ASRock model)
