Best GPUs for Local AI in 2026
Graphics cards ranked by what they can actually run. Memory capacity decides what fits, bandwidth decides how fast — and neither appears in a gaming benchmark.
Ollama Hardware Requirements: What You Actually Need
What Ollama needs to run well — the real memory floor for each model size, which GPUs are supported on each platform, and how to tell whether it is using your GPU at all.
How Much VRAM Do You Need for Local AI?
The memory arithmetic behind local model hosting: how much VRAM each model size actually needs, how context length changes the answer, and why bandwidth decides everything after that.
