I am looking at resintalling my OS (currently Mint) which I have been running for a few years.

Mint is great and I may end up going back; but was thinking of trying something new.

I want to be able to play with local models and agents; I have a pretty decent system.

  • AMD 3700X
  • 64 GB DDR4
  • AMD RX9070 16GB GPU
  • 2TB NVME SSD
  • A few TB of HDD's

What are some good options for easily running models and agents; I have been using ollama to run models; but I'm sure things have moved on since I begun playing with things a year ago.

Give me a few tips; I am going to have a bit of time on my hands over the next few months.

It has been a while, but last model I ran was gemma4:e4b 9.6GB. It ran very quickly; also have run deepseek-coder-v2:16b 8.9GB, again very fast.....

I am looking to get back into it once I have a bit of time on my hands; I'll look into the state of the art models again and see what I can run.
