Some GPU Considerations Good to Use with Local LLM Models

🌟Best choice: RTX 3090

• 2 generations before -> low cost
• 24 GB VRAM -> top power for LLM (VRAM thirsty)

🧠 NVIDIA Consumer GPUs (≥ 8 GB VRAM, sorted by VRAM)

24 GB VRAM

• RTX 4090
  RTX 3090
  RTX 3090 Ti

👉 Absolute best for local LLMs (big context, no offload).

20 GB VRAM

• RTX 4080 Super (20 GB variants exist in some regions / AIBs)
  RTX 3080 Ti (20 GB OEM / rare variants)

👉 Rare, but very strong if you find one.

16 GB VRAM

• RTX 4080
  RTX 4070 Ti Super
  RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB
  RTX 3080 16 GB (rare AIBs)
  RTX 2080 Ti

👉 Sweet spot for serious local LLM + agents.
