2025-08-08
The author tested a cluster of four pre-production Framework Desktops, each equipped with an AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 processor and a Radeon 8090S GPU. Initial tests utilized a 2.5 Gbps Ethernet interconnect, later upgraded to 5 Gbps. Thunderbolt interconnects were also tested, achieving 10 Gbps via TB4. All automation is in the Beowulf AI Cluster repo. Benchmarks covering CPU, GPU, disk, and network performance are available via the provided links.
