A local-AI hardware calculator that matches GPUs and Apple silicon Macs with language, coding, image, and video models.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The matcher combines a hardware profile with workload, quantization, and context settings before comparing them against its model catalog. The displayed catalog contains 89 hardware presets and 92 models, and its report distinguishes native VRAM fits from system-memory offload and upgrade suggestions. Results include estimated token-per-second ranges, minimum RAM, confidence labels, and ready-to-adapt llama.cpp commands; the page identifies these figures as modeled estimates rather than guarantees.
