How's the overall software support for MI300 series? The hardware itself looks great.

(also, +100 to valuing honesty and transparency)



The hardware is actually pretty amazing. 192GB (or 1.5TB in a chassis), is a game changer.

I'll let you know once I get my hands on them again. There really isn't enough public information about them at all. So far, my friends at ElioVP [0] have published a blog post. Still with not enough detail for my taste, but I'm pretty sure he is limited by what he can talk about. Luckily, I am not.

I mention in another comment below that my current goal is to get a bunch of people to perform testing on them and then publish blog posts along with open source code. This way, we can start a repository of CI/CD tests to see how things improve with time. ROCm 6.1 is rumored to be quite an improvement.

Nice! I'm pretty interested in GPGPU applications and MI300A, but I'm also just glad for more competition. Love that you hit up the LocalLLaMa sub.

Do you know if anyone's tested CuPy stuff on MI300X?


We haven't spec'd to buy A's quite yet as you're actually the first person I've heard even suggest them. If you're truly interested, hit me up personally.

By default, we are putting dual 9754's in the chassis, along with 3TB ram and 155TB nvme. A pretty beefy box. However, if you want to work with us, we can customize this to whatever customers need.

Effectively, we are the capex/opex for something that requires a lot of upfront funding and want to work with businesses that would rather focus on the software side of things.


Was mostly just checking to see if someone had already tested GPGPU, though I know some HPC labs like the MI300A. While I am starting a business, I'm not at the point of shipping software just yet (I wish!). Will definitely keep you in mind for if/when we get to AMD -- it's something I'd want, though that depends on achieving any modicum of success, haha.


Awesome, thanks for the follow up. I wish you the best with your business! It definitely isn't easy, but we will be here to help, when you need it.
