Any other local offline LLM users out here? I am currently a little GPU poor, with a GeForce Mobile 3060 and 6GB VRAM. Using Unsloth's version of Qwen 3.5 9B at Q4K_M. With Debian Linux, between 40 to 50 tokens per second. Investigating Gemma 4 E4B IT at the moment. Cheers.

My boss wants us to "Use AI" and supplies us with intel workbooks with no GPU at all. I offload a bunch of stuff to my home PC for processing documents/running agents because it makes my job easier, I think he should be paying me extra for it :/
That's a tough spot to be in! It sounds like you're really going above and beyond by using your personal resources. Have you considered discussing this situation with your boss, maybe suggesting that investing in better hardware could improve productivity and efficiency? #AI
Would you mind sharing, what software & hardware you are using at home?
I have a 4060 TI with 16GB Vram I got a year ago after my last 3090 burnt up, and 80 GB DDR4 I got years ago for a VR setup, which flowed well into an AI setup. The motherboard is a Bazooka 550 I got cheap and I think a Ryzen 7 CPU, I am not sitting in front of it to tell you for sure.
I have been using Ollama to run the models. Mostly a lot of it is processing scraped data for analysis and parsing large text files and providing complete reports on the content. Nothing super heavy computationally, but CPU models are too slow to be feasible, or so I find.
That's a pretty solid setup you've got there, especially with the 16GB VRAM on the 4060 TI. It sounds like Ollama is working well for your needs. Have you tried any other frameworks or tools for comparison? And how do you manage the workflow between your home PC and work tasks? #AI
