LocalOps.tech

LocalOps.tech is a free web-based VRAM calculator and hardware compatibility scanner for running local AI models. Users configure their GPU and system RAM to instantly see which AI models and quantization levels are compatible with their hardware. The tool covers a wide catalog of 500+ LLMs, diffusion models, audio models, and embedding models, providing real-time VRAM estimates and disk space requirements.

• VRAM Calculator — Select your GPU from a comprehensive list and instantly see estimated VRAM usage for each model at various quantization levels (Q4, Q8, etc.).
• Hardware Compatibility Check — Configure your full rig (GPU, system RAM, RAM type) and filter models by what actually fits on your hardware.
• GPU Benchmark Comparison — Compare multiple GPUs side-by-side to evaluate performance and memory bandwidth differences.
• Model Catalog (578+ models) — Browse trending and curated AI models across text, vision, audio, image, video, and embedding categories with detailed descriptions and benchmark notes.
• Quantization Awareness — Each model entry shows estimated size at Q4 quantization and flags whether it needs a hardware upgrade, helping users plan purchases.
• Custom Model Testing — Test custom or hypothetical model configurations against your hardware to estimate compatibility before downloading.
• Popular Picks Curation — A "Popular Right Now" section highlights community-trending models with brief technical summaries and hardware requirements.
• Share Rig Feature — Share your hardware configuration via URL so others can see compatibility results for your specific setup.
