Added an old 2070 Super to my rig and I can't go back...worse, now I need more
A user on the r/LocalLLaMA subreddit shared their experience upgrading their local AI setup by adding an older 2070 Super GPU. This seemingly small addition significantly improved their ability to run larger models like Qwen3.6-27B with extensive context lengths, achieving impressive generation speeds. The user found that increased VRAM was more impactful for their workflow than raw processing power, leading them to consider purchasing even more powerful GPUs like the 3090. AI
