finding the main downside with experimenting with local AI models is that you end up buying one GPU, then another, then another, then another… But I’m running qwen3.6 27b dense at 100 tok/s now on a 5090 eGPU! It feels like sonnet 4.6? Fast and highly usable I figure the GPUs I have will now increase in value over the next few years so it’ll all be worth it
