What Hardware will you run your node on exactly?

What is the difference between decentralized networks and distributed networks, and where on the decentralization spectrum do you sit? give pls answer

Decentralised systems have no single control point.
Distributed systems may have centralizedcontrol unit .

I’ll use recommended hardware. I think it will be based on Ryzen 5 3600

More important is a RTX 2070 gpu from nvidia, as the matmul calculations are based on the tensor module. For the cpu i would recommend a 8 core cpu (16 threads) minimum ryzen 2700 … i personaly use a 3700.

thanks

And what do u think about rtx 3060?

no clue yet as not out yet… will probably buy one to test it out when they are released

strong candidate

What is the Ryzen 5 3600, 6 core problem?
