I recently made a little tool for people interested in running local LLMs to figure out if their hardware is able to run an LLM in GPU memory.

Neat idea! It would be helpful to have LLMs ranked from best to worst for a given GPU. Few other improvements I can think of:

- Use natural language for telling offloading requirements.

- Just year of the LLM launch of HF url can help if it’s an outdated LLM or a cutting edge LLM.

- VLMs/Embedding models are missing?

Hey - thanks for the reply.

  - Use natural language for telling offloading requirements.
Do you mean remove the JSON thing and just summarise the offloading requirements?

  - Just year of the LLM launch of HF url can help if it’s an outdated LLM or a cutting edge LLM.
Great Idea - I will try add this tonight.

  - VLMs/Embedding models are missing?
Yeah I just have text generation models ATM as that is by far where the most interest is. I will look at adding other model types in another type, but wouldn't be until the weekend that I do that.
