Common questions

What laptop can run Llama 3 locally?

Any laptop with 16GB RAM can run 7B–8B models like Llama 3.2. For 70B models you need 32GB or Apple Silicon.

Do I need a GPU for local AI?

No. 7B–8B models run on CPU with 16GB RAM. A GPU helps for larger models but is not required.

Do desktops and mini PCs work?

Yes. A Dell OptiPlex or Intel NUC with 16GB RAM runs 7B models well. Gaming PCs with RTX GPUs handle 13B–32B models.

How do I start after buying?

Install Ollama from ollama.com (free, 2 min). Run "ollama pull llama3". Done — runs 100% locally.
