What can this build run?
Good for 13B-class models
Strong everyday local LLM tier; 30B may need more memory or heavier quantization.
Good for everyday local LLM use
- Roughly suitable for: local coding assistants and 7B/8B models
- Roughly suitable for: 13B/14B quantized models
- Roughly suitable for: CUDA image generation and developer workloads
Actual fit depends on quantization, model choice, and runtime.
AI terms in plain language
Unified memory
Apple Silicon memory shared by CPU and GPU. Useful for local AI, but not identical to NVIDIA VRAM.
7B / 13B / 70B
A rough model-size signal. Larger numbers usually need more memory and may run slower.
q4 / quantization
A compressed 4-bit model that uses less memory, sometimes with quality or speed tradeoffs.
Inference
Running an existing model for chat, coding help, summaries, or document workflows.
LoRA / fine-tuning
A way to adapt a model to your data; it needs more stability, RAM, and storage.

Build Notes
Lowest-cost sensible CUDA entry for local AI. Good for 7B quantized chat, embeddings, and learning Ollama or llama.cpp; 13B models need tight quantization and shorter context.

Order
Quote reference price
€2,020
Shown for planning. Direct checkout remains quote-only until fresh market pricing and availability are checked.
Price chart shows Estonian market averages before assembly/configuration markup; quote-only pricing is manually confirmed before payment.
Direct checkout blocker
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3060 12GB - price failed safety checks
Quote-only because component pricing could not be verified.
Fresh, non-fallback Estonian market pricing is required before Stripe payment can be opened. Use the verified quote request on this page for manual review.
What happens after your quote request
- No payment is taken from the quote request form.
- We review your use case, model targets, timeline, and budget.
- We verify suitable parts and current Estonian market pricing.
- Possible substitutions or changes are confirmed before any payment link.
- We usually send the next step or follow-up questions within 1-2 business days.
Support and questions continue through the order or quote email thread.
Request a verified quote
The request does not take payment. We manually verify price and availability, then confirm substitutions or changes before offering any payment link.
Trust and process
What happens after an order or quote request
After payment
You receive a confirmation email. We then check part availability and contact you if any component may need a practical substitution.
Assembly and testing
The planned workflow is assembly, software setup, and baseline GPU/AI checks before handover.
Handover in Estonia
Pickup or local delivery method and timing are agreed after availability is checked.
Warranty and support
Warranty handling depends on the component, manufacturer, and retailer. Support questions continue through the order or quote email thread.
Assembly QA
Planned baseline checks before handover
- BIOS and firmware baseline check
- Driver and AI tooling installation
- Thermal and load sanity check
- Memory and storage health check
- Local AI smoke test where applicable
