A user is planning to build a budget home AI server for local LLM inference and is weighing the cost-effectiveness of AMD's RX 9060 XT GPUs against NVIDIA's RTX 5060 Ti. The AMD option offers significant savings, potentially saving $650 on a 48GB VRAM setup, but raises questions about software support and PCIe lane allocation for the third GPU. The user is also considering platform choices between a Socket AM5 build with a Ryzen 9 processor and a used AMD EPYC setup, evaluating factors like PCIe lanes, memory bandwidth, and overall system RAM capacity for large MoE models.
