I'm so thankful that I didn't buy into the 3000 series hype and just bought a 2060 Super the moment one became available at MSRP after the 3000s launched. Everyone said it was a waste paying that price for less performance, but I had a card and they still didn't 4 months later.
I'd say that the way around the shortages is to just not go for the latest and greatest new hardware, but that's not really helpful for GPUs anymore anyway. Even the desirable last gen cards are still going for scalper prices.
The 3090 is currently the best price/performance for AI.
If I build a rig with a 3090 running Debian will stuff like ollama be able to take advantage of it? Thinking up building a new system for my containers and getting into that.
Yes! I do this with a 3060 and Debian.
Yes. I'm not using Debian, but I am doing basically that.
Probably. On arch, you install ollama and ollama-cuda and you're good to go.
The 3060 is a solid card for the price.
Yeah the 12gb is nice for video editing
3000 series is fantastic, however it was during Covid so prices were way out of whack. I somehow lucked out and got a 3080 for msrp and it is still doing great in 1440 max settings for most games at +144fps . I did have to go to mid settings on BF6 to keep it at 144mhz, but still haven't needed to turn frame gen on.
