Get The Big GPU Playbook

The companion to the reel “AMD lends you a 192 GB GPU. Here’s how to run OpenAI’s giant free model on it.” AMD offers an initial $100 cloud credit to qualified developers who apply and join the AMD AI Developer Program, for one Instinct MI300X with 192 GB of GPU memory. INSIDE: (1) what AMD says, quoted, plus why gpt-oss-120b (116.8B parameters, Apache 2.0, no access request, about 65 GB of weights; AMD says both gpt-oss models fit on a single MI300X). (2) Steps 1–3: apply with a clear use case, create the GPU droplet, install the ROCm build of vLLM and serve the model with AMD’s own MI300X command. (3) Use it: test with curl, lock it with an API key, call it from Python as an OpenAI-compatible API. (4) Don’t burn the credit: a powered-off GPU still bills, the 30-day clock, and a session checklist. Quotes from amd.com and rocm.blogs.amd.com, Oct 14 2026.
