Can My PC Run Local AI?

Enter RAM, VRAM, workload and context for a conservative model-fit shortlist, including smaller CPU-only PCs. Everything is calculated in this page. Nothing is uploaded and this is not a benchmark or compatibility guarantee.

Your hardware

Try an example, not a hardware scan:

Integrated/shared GPU memory is not the same as dedicated VRAM. If you have no dedicated GPU, enter 0.

Where do I find RAM and VRAM on Windows?
  1. Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager.
  2. Choose Performance → Memory for installed RAM.
  3. Choose Performance → GPU and find Dedicated GPU memory. If multiple GPUs appear, select the device your AI runtime will use.

Shared GPU memory is not dedicated VRAM. This estimator reduces raw totals to conservative usable budgets.

One shared scale for estimated model working memory. Fit modes still depend on GPU versus RAM placement.

What this estimate does

It estimates model weights, context memory and runtime workspace, then checks whether each Q4 size band fits fully in GPU memory, needs hybrid GPU/RAM offload, falls back to CPU/system RAM, or does not fit safely.

What “fits” does not mean

A model fitting in memory does not prove that it will be fast or even supported by your runtime. GPU architecture, memory bandwidth, exact quantisation and model implementation still decide real performance.

Next: verify with the real machine

LLMRadar is built around hardware-aware model recommendations and local runtime evidence. HardwareRadar focuses on the Windows hardware and telemetry layer.
