Hey everyone, I’m new to running AI models locally and I’d like some advice. My laptop specs are: HP OMEN 15 CPU: Intel i5-8300H RAM: 16 GB GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti 4 GB VRAM OS: Windows I’m planning to use Ollama and want to run local AI models mainly for coding, cybersecurity learning, and general AI assistance. What models would you recommend for this hardware? Would 7B/8B models run reasonably well, or should I stick to 3B–4B models? Also, is there anything I should configure to get the best performance from the GTX 1050 Ti? Thanks! submitted by /u/Money-Sherbert8159 [link] [comments]
