AI fit is a rough estimate; model/runtime/quantization affects results.
Entry 12GB CUDA Build
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.
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3060 12GB
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600
RAM: 32GB | Storage: 2000GB
Target: 7B q4 / 13B tight
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

Efficient 12GB CUDA Workstation
Efficient CUDA build for 7B-13B inference, coding assistants, and private chat without excessive heat or power draw. The 12GB VRAM is the limiter; 20B-class models require aggressive quantization and short context.
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4070 SUPER
CPU: Intel Core i5-14600K
RAM: 64GB | Storage: 2000GB
Target: 7B-13B q4 / 20B tight

Power-Efficient RTX 4000 Ada Build
Quiet, efficient always-on inference box with a 20GB professional NVIDIA GPU. Best for homelab serving, private assistants, and low-noise office use where power draw matters more than peak gaming performance; larger models still need conservative context settings.
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4000 Ada
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7900
RAM: 64GB | Storage: 2000GB
Target: 13B/14B strong; 30B tight/offload

Blackwell 5070 Ti 16GB Build
Latest-generation 16GB NVIDIA option for buyers who want Blackwell features, GDDR7 bandwidth, and CUDA compatibility. Good for 13B-class inference; 30B-class models are experimental with tight context or offload and this is still not a replacement for 24GB+ VRAM builds.
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9900X
RAM: 64GB | Storage: 2000GB
Target: 13B/14B strong; 30B tight/offload

Radeon 24GB ROCm Compatibility Build
Good VRAM-per-euro only after the exact ROCm/PyTorch/Ollama stack is validated for the buyer's workload. CUDA-first tools, training recipes, and plugins should be assumed NVIDIA-first unless tested.
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX
CPU: Intel Core i7-14700K
RAM: 96GB | Storage: 2000GB
Target: 13B-34B q4 ROCm-targeted
Better for 30B-class models
Stronger fit for larger quantized models; actual fit depends on runtime and settings.

Balanced NVIDIA 16GB
Balanced CUDA choice for local chat, coding assistants, embeddings, and 13B-class models. Some 30B-34B quantized workloads are experimental with tight context or CPU offload, but 16GB VRAM is the main limiter.
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4080 SUPER
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7900
RAM: 64GB | Storage: 2000GB
