Robbie's Independent Take
Verified: 2026-10-11
Excellent candidate for local execution with zero cloud lock-in. For 7B-8B parameter models, budget at least 8 GB of unified memory or VRAM (Q4_K_M quantization). For 32B-70B models, aim for 24 GB+ to maintain interactive throughput without CPU offload penalties.
