Image Processing model and Audio Processing model on 32GB VRAM and 64GB RAM?

I have been playing around with LLMs on a dual 5060ti (Windows) rig, and now want to change things up. I built a separate dual 5070ti (Debian) rig and now have that running Qwen 3.6 27b UD Q6 MTP @ 100k context, without any multimodal capacity. That's solid for the text processing and generation stuff I want to do right now (which is mainly IT support tickets triage and PowerShell scripting via OpenCode as the "harness"). This now leaves my dual 5060ti rig ready for repurposing. I'...

Devs - do you use Mistral Medium 3.5 (128b dense) and if so - thoughts?

I've picked up a 3-bit quant of this one (Unsloth - Q3_KS) - the best fit for my config right now. Normally I shy away from 3-bit quants but as this is a giant dense model, I figured... why not. I've tested it a few hours in my latest project, and it found a few things that my daily driver had missed. It seems really good. Slower than an MoE, but not bad for me (8 tok/sec - with KV 80k - quant K = q8_0 quant v = q5_0). I was wondering what other people thought after actually using it with co...

Need help building a rig / estimating performance for big LLMs to run when fully offline

Hello. So, first, ill probably explain the context, and why we (well, I kinda have a team, so ill say we) want to build something like that. We live in Russia. There are many preconditions, that point to the fact that pretty soon, we'll get our internet access (global internet, apparently) completely cut off. And we are preparing to go fully offline for indefinite period. I know, this sounds weird. No one believes that. But I prefer to be ready for the worst case scenario. ...and we kinda wan...

Modded RTX 4090 48GB vs Radeon AI Pro R9700 vs Arc Pro B70 for local coding LLMs?

Building a personal rig mainly for running coding LLMs locally (inference,maybe light fine-tuning). Already have the motherboard/rest of the platform sorted — just deciding on the GPU. Three options I keep coming back to: Modded RTX 4090 48GB (Chinese clamshell mod) — I have an eBay offer at $3,500. 48GB GDDR6X, full AD102, ~1TB/s bandwidth, and obviously CUDA. The catch: third-party firmware, no real warranty, blower cooler, and general "is this thing reliable long-term" n...

Stripping terminal noise from agent context via a lazy-loaded local CLI layer. Looking for brutal feedback on this heuristic.

When building long-running coding agents, terminal output is one of the fastest ways to poison a context window. If an agent runs an intensive build, an install command, or a massive search ( grep / find ), it easily generates hundreds of lines of raw log noise. The agent reads it once to check the status, but you continue to pay for those massive, redundant log tokens on every subsequent turn in the conversation loop. To fix this, we designed a lightweight CLI layer called Boost to act as...

Exploring FlashAttention-3/4 optimizations on RTX GPUs

I was curious whether any of the FA-3/4 optimizations transfer to RTX GPUs. vLLM/SGLang attention falls back to FA-2 on consumer cards (FA-3 and FA-4 are datacenter-only), so I wanted to know if there's any performance left on the table, and I rebuilt the attention kernels from scratch. The kernel reaches parity with FA-2 (206us on RTX5090 with batch=1, heads=8, seq_len=4096, head_dim=64), but unfortunately, FA-3/4 optimizations are either not applicable or not helpful on consumer cards.

What GUI-first coding tool tool are you pairing your local LLMs with? Opencode isn't it for me.

I've grown very frustrated with OpenCode. The web GUI and desktop app ideas are good, but the execution not so much. The GUI is lacking so many basic features. It's clear that the TUI is more important to the devs. Is there anything free that provides a more feature-rich GUI? Having it run in a server is really great for me since I'd like to leave long running jobs. I also use Hermes, but I don't like it for coding.

Can you explain the concept behind each of the main size ranges of LLM models, as in, what hardware setups the different size niches are meant to fit into (~30b, ~70b, ~120b, ~230b, etc). Like is it mainly based on pro hardware sizing for 8-bit, or consumer GPU vram for ~Q4, or some mixture?

I am curious about intended sizings of the main size niches of the popular local LLM models. As in, we can see there is a major niche at 26b-35b, then hardly anything from 36 through 69b, then (formerly) another major niche at ~70b-72b, then another niche at ~120b-123b, then another big gap till ~230b-235b, and then it gets a bit more mixed all over the place after that with 300b-750b being scattered more randomly probably based more on just whatever the best strength per size they could get w...

4-bit GLM-5.2 (753B MoE) on 4× DGX Spark: 70.8% on Terminal-Bench 2.1 vs 81.0% for the full model

TL;DR: Full GLM-5.2 (753B MoE) quantized to Int4-Int8Mix + NVFP4 4-bit KV cache, TP=4 across 4× DGX Spark (GB10) at 100K context , run on Terminal-Bench 2.1 with the same agent scaffold (Terminus-2) as the official numbers. Result: 63/89 = 70.8% vs the official full-precision 81.0% . Caveat up front: I never ran the full model through my pipeline — the ~10-pt gap bundles quantization plus my 100K-vs-256K context cap, a smaller token budget, and unmatched sampling. So read it as: my wh...

Update: K2 think v2 is rated highest because it supplies its training data and training regimen. This allows anyone with enough resources to recreate the model. Deep seek doesn't publish how it trained its model or the training data, so it gets a lower score. If we try to compare software to LLMs. One level of software is that they s...

TP4+DCP2 for a ~360k kV pool. Prefill increases to 900-1000 t/s with longer prompts. You can also run DCP4 for 660k, but prefill gets shaved to ~400. Dropping DCP raises prefil to ~750.
