Yeah, I agree, dedicated NICs with RDMA will be the way to go for multi node inference. IMHO this is a major design flaw in AMDs Ryzen AI Halo box. Nvidia ships it’s Spark with a ConnectX-7 for a reason. ---

That makes sense. So I guess we’re back to the question of whether the back of the Desktop chassis could include a PCIe expansion slot opening, along with the earlier discussion about using an open-ended PCIe slot. (Although I already use PCIE-oculink) ---

It will be interesting to see if the case has an appropriate opening. [Previous page](https://community.frame.work/t/psst-new-framework-desktop-update/83620.md?page=1)
