Unified Memory, Explained: Why Mini PCs Can Run 70B Models a Big GPU Can't
Mini PCs with unified memory can run 70-billion-parameter models due to their larger memory capacity, while high-end GPUs like the NVIDIA RTX 5090 are limited by their smaller memory size. The RTX 5090 has 32GB of memory, insufficient for a 70B model requiring approximately 40GB, whereas the mini PC can handle it with 128GB of memory.
