Though what is consumer hardware right now?

Can we still classify 5090s as consumer hardware given how expensive they are? They're £3k at the moment, and it looks like it's only going to get worse unless the AI bubble pops.

I was thinking more in terms of 24GB of VRAM total. I started sketching the architecture for such a model this afternoon, nothing novel, just combining existing advancements in the field. It looks achievable.
