Just upgraded my old PC to Xubuntu 26.04 (yes, I’m using Ubuntu on this machine :/).
Started around 2012 with a Core i5-650 and a GT 240, later upgraded to a GTX 780 and now running an RX 570. What a journey xD
Still alive after 14 years of abuse.
It’s sitting in my old room, mostly used for browsing, coding and retro games.
I’m sticking with kernel 6.8.0-110 because I need "amdgpu.dc=0" to get DVI working on my RX 570 (Polaris).
It seems like this parameter doesn’t work properly anymore with kernel 7.x.

alright. since I am using my home server more seriously, it desperately needed a ram upgrade. the original 8GB (2x4) are falling short...

also, I originally got the computer with a gtx560ti GPU, which linux kernel 6.5x (or so) no longer supports. given that I am running jellyfin, that means i haven't been able to use hardware transcoding.

that ends today.

i just finished installing 32GB (4x8) RAM, and a RTX4060 GPU. bear in mind that the mobo is Sandy Bridge based, so there's a limit on which hardware I am able to use, yet for a home server it should get the job done.

Bạn đang dùng Ryzen 5 5600, bo mạch Gigabyte B550, GPU RX 6600, 16 GB DDR4 và muốn chạy mô hình AI 30‑70 B. Để tối đa hiệu năng mà không thay bo mạch:

- Nâng RAM lên 32‑64 GB DDR4 (đúng tần số bo mạch).
- Thêm hoặc thay GPU mạnh hơn, ưu tiên card có ≥24 GB VRAM (RTX 4090, RTX 3090 Ti hoặc AMD RX 7900 XTX).
- Xem xét nâng CPU lên Ryzen 7 5800X/5600X để giảm bottleneck.
- Đảm bảo tản nhiệt tốt và PSU đủ công suất (≥850 W).
