My office computer has a Ryzen 7 5700, RX 580x, and 32gb of ram. Running ollama with deepseekv2 or llama3 is much slower than chatgpt in the browser. Same with my newer, more powerful home computer.

What kind of hardware do you need to run with comparable responsiveness to chatgpt? How much does it cost? Presuming such hardware is commercial, where do you find it?

Install LocalAI and ensure it’s using acceleration. It’s one of the best solutions we have at the moment.

Are you sure you’re not running these small models off of CPU and no acceleration? Because I’m running these small models pretty quickly. Nearly instant responses using a NVIDIA titanXP from a gaming rig I built in 2017 ish.

AMD is quite awful in this regard. Rn with my rx6650xt using Vulcan acceleration, I get the same speed as running on my r5 7600

You'd need basically a small server rack filled with datacenter GPUs. Expect mid to high 5 digit numbers.

But: running smaller models on a typical gaming GPU is quite doable.

Generally you need between $8-10,000 worth of equipment to get relative responsiveness from a self-hosted LLM.
