Can NVIDIA and Adobe work together to get creatives to actually like AI?
RTX Spark introduces local AI agents in Photoshop, and creatives should be (cautiously) optimistic
Nvidia has reintroduced the RTX 3060 with a 12 GB version, featuring a low-profile design suitable for compact systems. This one-slot card, priced at $495.59 by SRhonyra, draws power solely from the PCIe slot, eliminating the need for a robust power supply and reducing cable clutter. Designed for entry-level local AI workstations, it can run 7B to 13B language models, despite drawing only 70 W of power from the PCIe slot, resulting in slightly lower performance compared to its full-sized counterparts.
Despite the reduced power, the card's low-profile design and minimal power consumption make it an attractive option for those seeking a compact solution for running larger models in constrained environments.
