Compatible — current price unavailable

These GPUs calculate as a full VRAM fit. They are not inserted into the current-price ranking because RigForAI has no fresh matched Amazon offer for them. That is not the same as too expensive or incompatible.

Supported llama.cpp decode per current $1,000

Not ranked here: comparable published MEDIUM-or-higher-confidence llama.cpp decode predictions with a fresh price are unavailable for this workload. Raw Phase 5 estimates may still appear on GPU and comparison pages.
