How does 397B-A17B compare against frontier? Did anybody try? Probably needs serious HW that most people don't have.

I’ve tried it via openrouter. It’s very good, but for some tasks frontier models are still significantly better.

For me, the 122b model is good enough on my own hardware that the downsides can be worked around for the sake of privacy and cost savings.
