Scientific applications. My lab has a PC running 196GB RAM for processing 3D and 4D microscopy voxel datasets.
Bruh, my whole mid-to-high range gaming PC costs 850 to 2K euro. What is the intended use of such an expensive RAM kit? Is it LLMs again?

Assuming that you don’t need the absolute tightest timings and highest speed, you can get 192 GB from Corsair for “just” 660 euros where I live, pretty far still from 2000 euros. The speed and timings are the same as the 1300 euro kit, also from Corsair, it’s just that the cheaper kit has no RGB.

256GB at 6000. In a desktop motherboard yes.
This kit. G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB F5-6000J3644D64GX4-TZ5NR
One of if not the only kit that can run with high capacity and at high speeds.

Sounds more like the applications require some serious optimizations to me…

Not LLM in this case actually. Virtualization mostly with qubes OS
