To clarify with some additional details, I probably could have spent less on the computer; I sprang for 384 GB of DDR4 and 1 TB NVMe to make loading models faster.

I am running LLaMA 30B at home at full fp16. Takes 87 GB of VRAM on six AMD Insight MI25s and speed is reasonable but not fast (It can spit out a sentence in 10-30 seconds or so in a dialog / chatbot context depending on the length of the response.) While the hardware is not "consumer hardware" per se, it's old datacenter hardware, the cost was in line with the kind of money you would spend on a middling gaming setup. The computer cost about $1500 to build up and the GPUs to put in it set me back about $500.
