I've a minipc running an AMD 5700U where I host some services, including ollama and openwebui.

Unfortunately the support of rocm isn't quite there yet and not to mention that of mobile GPUs.

Surprisingly the prompts work when configured to use the CPU, but the speed is just... well, not good.

So, what'd be a cheap and energy efficient setup to run sone kind of LLM for personal use, but still get decent speed?

I was thinking about getting an e-gpu case, but I'm not sure about how solid this would end up.

Aren't those all old-ish sockets with Xeons that top out at like 40 PCIe lanes?

Problem is, new i7/i9 top out at 24 pcie lanes so old xeons is still bang for the buck in homelab sector

Mining boards give about 1-2 pci lanes per gpu because there's a lot of gpus, also look up Nvidia mining gpus, they restricted to pcie x1 or/and x4 even if you put them into x16 slot
