One of my work systems I have at home is pretty powerful, policy allows me to use it for personal use.
Not REALLY interested in gaming, or mining bitcoin as I have a PS5 for that, I know, shun me.
HP Z6 G4 workstation
Dual socket 2.1Ghz Intel Xeon with 26 cores each and can hyper thread to 104 cores total can scale pretty high too.
64GB RAM
Nvidia A6000 with 48GB RAM
2 2TB NVMEs and I think there’s another slot or two free. If I were to use it for personal I’d install my own NVME and disable the other drives in BIOS while using for personal.
What would you do with this sort of power? I know most of you probably have something similar or better. So this may not be anything special… but just curious. I know this GPU is more for machine learning and whatnot but not too familiar with ML. Curious what other people would use it for.

Hold on… is that THREE vertical monitors?
r/LocalLLaMA will tell you how to use.
Soon, you will acquire another A6000.
Then, you will question yourself if two A6000s are enough and consider to acquire two more A6000s.
I would play minecraft.
Then I would blow up as much tnt as possible.
That is one hell of a work station
