Interesting setup. What GPU(s)/VRAM, CPU and RAM are you using for the 122B model, with which quantization, and what token rates do you achieve for prefill and generation?
Does anybody think Aluminium as a brand name is a good choice? Especially considering the intended expansion towards the premium market.
To me it sounds cheap, second-rate, ersatz. What you use if you cannot afford a better metal. Chrome is shiny, aluminium surfaces soon get dim again after any polishing attempt.
If you have a south (or SE or SW) facing wall without much shadowing from nearby buildings or trees, vertikal mounting does work OK. Do not expect to reach the panel's nominal Wp rating though, output will peak at 50-70% of that. But panels are cheap - if there's enough room, just overprovision twofold. Just take care to buy an inverter that is OK with such a bigger configuration.
And vertically mounted panels will generate more power off-season than tilted ones.
Loooking closely, the shop does not seem to be located within the EU. And the 50€ discount does not apply to the 128GB config.
Also, if you are interested, it might help to have a look into the user forum: https://de.gmktec.com/community/xenforum
Interesting - do you need to take any special measures to get OSS genAI models to work on this architecture?
Can you use inference engines like Ollama and vLLM off-the-shelf (as Docker containers) there, with just the Radeon 8060S GPU? What token rates do you achieve?
This brings back fond memories from the 8-bit era. Tasword II was a text processor for the Sinclair ZX Spectrum where the developers resorted to extra-narrow fonts to cope with the Speccy's very limited (256x192) screen resolution.
The lower screenshot in [1] provides a glimpse of what seems to be a 3px wide font.
OP's 2px width are a bit too extreme for my taste though.
