<p dir="auto">Fortunately, there is some sort of "fix/alternative" to atleast get some of that performance back, although it's largely untested, found on <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1vx1isa/rebar_support_for_20gb_rtx_3080/" rel="nofollow ugc">this reddit thread</a>, reading the messages from <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Difficult_Tip_6669/" rel="nofollow ugc">u/Difficult_Tip_6669</a>.</p>
<p dir="auto"><a href="https://github.com/efschu/barlink-pcie" rel="nofollow ugc">The repo mentioned on the reddit thread</a> seems to have some PoC on how to get barlink working again, although the repository seems shallow and unmaintained. I do believe there is some sort of untapped potential here to get these cards some needed performance boost.</p>
<p dir="auto">Update: I got it working and made a script for it to be installed easily and working on vLLM/SGLang:<br />
