Nice, I recently pulled down TheBloke 7B mistral to try out I have a 4070.
- ganelonhb 5mo agoI have a 2070 and can confirm it works amazingly fast. I love TheBloke I wish he still made stuff
- ge96 5mo agoWhat do you use it for? I'm still trying to use agents, I barely use copilot, only at work when I have to. I didn't want to get personal with an LLM unless it was local so that's why I was setting this up but yeah. So far just research is what I was looking at.
- bashbjorn 5mo agoYeah, TheBloke era of local LLMs were good times. TBF Unsloth are doing a fantastic job of publishing quants of the major models quickly - they just don't have nearly the volume of "weird" models as TheBloke did.
- paradox460 5mo agoA lot of the same spirit lives on in TheDrunmer They're mostly aimed at role play and sillytavern, but they're still generally good models, with lots of quants available
- bashbjorn 5mo agoI love mistral, but that model is... not the best. Maybe try out Gemma 4 e4b, it's a similar size to Mistral 7B, and should run great on your 4070 ("E4B" is slightly misleading naming).
- ge96 5mo agoThanks for the tip, what do you use Gemma 4 e4b for?
- redanddead 5mo agosome say it’s a miniaturized gemini model it’s good at writing, coding, decently intelligent you can try it on nvidia nim
- mixtureoftakes 5mo ago7b mistral is quite outdated. On a 12gb 4070 you can run qwen 3.5 9b q4km or qwen 3.6 35b, the latter will be a lot smarter but also a lot slower due to ram offload. Try both in lm studio, they really are surprisingly capable
- ge96 5mo agoI have 80gb of ram but it's slow capped by i9 CPU or specific asus mobo sucks I think only 2400mhz despite being ddr4 Tried all the stuff bios, volting
- macNchz 5mo agoGemma 4 26B-A4B might be interesting to try on your machine. The latest optimizations make MoE models work pretty nicely on setups like that with a decent GPU and lots of slowish RAM. I have a 16gb GPU and 64gb of 3200mhz DDR4 and get 15-20 tokens/sec out of that model with zero finagling or tweaking. I’ve been very impressed by it, even having run just about every other open weight model that would fit on my machine over the last few years.
