📝 Description

The components were selected to build a stable, very best top of the line, somewhat affordable system I could use for home AI development for the next few years. It should be silent when idling or browsing.

I hope to achieve this by chosing the following:

top of the line cpu - ie i9 13900ks
top of the line GPU with maximum memory of 24GB for AI models ie Nvidea 4090. I chose MSI supreme
maximum amount of fast memory - recent QVL upped max memory to 192gb
top of line nvme ssd - i currently use 1 TB so I am getting 2TB. I am getting two ssd's for backup and redundancy
top of the line lan speed to connect to local NAS ie 10gbe
case with room for two external drives for easy disk to disk backups
sufficient cooling fans to prevent throttling and prolong life

The system is just a plan as I have not yet purchased any parts.
