How Quant, Where the GPU Actually Goes

howquant.dev Observed source

Editorial interest 86/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A technical field guide to local AI inference, GPU memory, Linux hardware, and measured llama.cpp performance.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-27 issue.

Field notes

How Quant organizes local-inference work around reproducible hardware details rather than broad AI commentary. Its visible material includes ROCm 7.14 installation and verification, Vulkan/RADV setup, llama.cpp options, and tests of memory and PCIe behavior. The GPU-fit calculator distinguishes exact GGUF sizes from parameter-based estimates, while benchmark entries identify hardware, model variants, software revisions, and measurement dates.
