1. Assembly logic and core components of AI large model computer host
2. Detailed explanation of cost-effective configuration plan under a budget of 10,000 yuan
3. Reasons for choosing NVIDIA RTX 3090 graphics card and AMD Ryzen 5 5600X CPU
Components | Model / Specification | Require | Price (Yuan) | Remark |
CPU | AMD Ryzen 5 5600X | 6 cores , 12 threads, 3.7-4.6GHz | 650 | Basic computing support |
GPU | NVIDIA RTX 3090 | 24GB GDDR6X , 10496 CUDA cores | 6500-9000 | Video memory meets 4-bit model requirements |
Motherboard | MSI B550M PRO-VDH | PCIe 4.0 x16 | 600 | Good compatibility and high cost performance |
Memory | 32GB DDR4 3200MHz | 2 x 16GB | 500 | Satisfy model loading and context processing |
storage | Western Digital SN770 1TB NVMe | 1TB , 5150MB/s read | 500 | Storage model files (about 40GB ) |
power supply | Great Wall GX650 650W | 80PLUS Gold | 500 | 350W power consumption of 3090 |
Chassis | Jonsbo C6 | ATX , supports large graphics cards | 200 | Compact design, good heat dissipation |
Heat dissipation | Cooler Master T400i | Tower air cooling | 100 | Keep your CPU stable |
Total Price | 9050-12500 Yuan |
Memory
According to demand estimates, the maximum memory usage is expected to be 32GB , of which the 4-bit quantized model file is about 16GB in size and temporarily occupies RAM when loading, which is usually 1.5-2 times larger than the file (about 24-32GB) .
Therefore, the minimum memory configuration is 32GB DDR4 3200MHz and can handle short-length contexts.
64GB DDR4 3600MHz is recommended here to support long context and improve loading speed of large models.
It is recommended to install two memory sticks into the motherboard slots, mainly to make full use of the dual-slot dual-channel and improve concurrent performance.
4. Hard disk
It is recommended to use Western Digital SN770 1TB. The hard drive has sufficient performance, with interfaces of PCIe 4.0 x4 and NVMe, sequential read/write speed (IOPS) of 5150/4900 MB/s, random read/fetch speed (IOPS) of 650K/800K, and meets short context reasoning (4K tokens). As we all know, the sequential read and write speed of mechanical hard drives is capped at 300 MB/s, and NVMe hard drives are nearly 20 times faster.
If the budget is sufficient, the Samsung 990 PRO 2TB hard drive is recommended. The interface is also PCIe 4.0 x4, NVMe, providing double the space, sequential read/write speed is about 44% faster than SN770, and random read/fetch speed is about 41% faster. It can accommodate models, data sets and more files in the future, suitable for long-term use. At the same time, the hard drive has 2GB DRAM cache, maintaining stable high performance, suitable for AI tasks.
5. Motherboard
The MSI B550-A PRO motherboard is recommended here, mainly because it is cost-effective and costs only 600 yuan.
The B550 chipset of this motherboard matches the high bandwidth requirements of the RTX 3090; it provides 1 PCIe 4.0 x16 slot for the GPU to ensure GPU data transmission efficiency; it provides 2 M.2 slots (1 PCIe 4.0, 1 PCIe 3.0) for M.2 NVMe SSD hard drives; and it provides 4 DDR4 memory slots (up to 128GB, 4400MHz OC).
The motherboard also has lower power consumption, does not require a chipset fan, and runs more quietly.
There are disadvantages, the main one is that the expandability is not high. If you need to expand more GPUs and have sufficient budget, then the ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus motherboard is recommended.
6. Power supply
Configure the power supply based on the GPU power consumption. If you are using an RTX 3090 graphics card, we recommend the Great Wall GX650 650W with a power supply of 650W; if you are using a TRX 4090 graphics card, we recommend the SeaSonic Focus GX-850 with a power supply of 850W.
In addition to the above component modules, the AI computer host also has chassis, fans, mouse and keyboard, and display components, which are briefly described here. The chassis should be dustproof, collision-proof, beautiful, safe, and easy to route. It is recommended to use a closed chassis that can accommodate all component modules and consider GPU and CPU fan heat. The fan should match the CPU heat dissipation requirements and be silent. The mouse and keyboard should be easy to use. The display should be reused as much as possible.
Summary: After assembling the above configuration, you can assemble a high-performance AI computer that can run DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B for around 10,000 yuan, taking into account the application experience of games, image generation, audio generation, etc. At the same time, it is emphasized that unless you are an enthusiast, using the large model through the official website and API is the most economical and functional choice
