As noted in my other comment you can get obsolete GPUs (P100s, BC250s) with lots of RAM on AliExpress now. It hasn't proven revolutionary.

is 16Gb "lots of RAM" in an LLM world? How many of these would you need to stack on a motherboard to inference a decent size model?

At least 4, probably 6+.

BC250 shares memory with system. 16 GB GPUs have long been available to consumers for a small premium. What's never been readily available before is 40+ GB of HBM.

Those don't have a lot of RAM though. Not like these 40, 80GB ones.
