Hey guys, thinking of upgrading my PC, I’m a dev and i wanna run my own LLMs, it’s more to run my own copilot locally instead on relying on outside services. This is what I got now
Ryzen 7 3700x 32GB RAM 5500XT
Debating whether I should get a 3950x or 5800x3D as I can game abit better as well As for the GPU I might just go for the 4090, but if this is overkill please let me know. What you guys think?

I upgraded from gtx 1080 to rtx 3090 ti 2 weeks ago. I think going with rtx 3090 / 3090 ti / 4090 would be a good option for you, I don’t know how big of a difference having stronger cpu would have, I think exllama v2 has some cpu bottlenecking going on, but I have no idea what is computed on cpu and why. There were moments during generation where it seemed like it was using only 1 thread and it was maxing it out, being bottleneck for gpu. I don’t think ram matters a lot unless you train and merge loras and models.
- The only correct answer. CPU doesn’t matter.
Meh I’m running 13bs on a 13900k 64 gb ddr5 and a 6900xt with LM studio and it’s faster than my office workstations 12900ks 3090ti. Sometimes ram and processor with decent VRM is enough.
Your comparison proves his point! 13b will fit snuggly in your 6900 this is a head on comparison of the cards!
Welcome to the rabbit hole 😁. On a serious note, going for the newer generations pays dividends, in my opinion.
Curious, does anyone consider rtx A5000 / 6000? It’s twice the price of 4090/3090, but the performance improvement should be more than double
You want large vram on your video card. What ever is the largest ram video card that you can afford is the answer.
Is there a list where it has all GPUs and it can be ordered my VRAM?
