I got an RTX 6000 pro too. I like running locally, I've learned a lot more than if I had used an API and there's less worry about overspending tokens. I accidentally spent $100 on claude api in like 2 days because I didn't know what I was doing.

The problem is that while one these gpus is a huge improvement over a laptop or a single 3090, you very quickly wish you had more. I would buy a second one, but I did the math and realized that with the current crop of models, 2 Blackwells doesn't buy me any new capability that I didn't have with one. So I would need a 3rd one. And when I buy a 3rd one I will feel like I want to running a higher quant, so then I will want a 4th.
