But right now the “cheapest” hardware you can buy for a usable setup, is the strix halo (128GB), and run gufo with qwen 3.8 flash next (Q4XL). It is sonnet 5 level. Very good speed (both prefill 1000+ and decode 50+), with up to 256k context.
I have it set up with omp + searxng. Sometimes with hermes. Really good! It changes the game for local setup.

Just get the cheapest OEM, Bosgame M5. I know “cheapest” is in quotes. But again, it is the cheapest 128GB unified vram device you can get right now. I got mine at pre-orders, so yes, more than a year and a half ago, prices were a steal. Also, great desktop (mini) PC overall and very efficient, even if you don’t want to do AI.

I have like 150GB of DDR3 spread over multiple 2/4/8/16GB sticks, I wonder if I can get that working for something like this 🤔
