Nearly bought one thinking AMD will sort itself out shortly but hard to justify vs a second hand 3090 with 24gb and no cuda hassles

It makes a lot of sense to invest in a 24GB card for the right price.

I'm still basking in my good fortune buying a hundred 3090s from crypto miners at rock bottom prices.

Is it possible to link two and get 48GB VRAM and higher batch sizes?

The 3090 was the last card to get NVLink, which I believe allows you to do just that. None of the other 3000-series, nor any 4000-series, has it.
