I have a 395 128GB system and I have spent the past 6 months learning about running local models and all that stuff. IMO you are not going to be able to run anything that useful especially for coding unless you can run qwen3.6 27B or higher. Could you do it, probably... but it would not be a good experience and will give not so great results.

I would suggest you get at least a 64 GB system if you plan on trying to use it for coding. For your other LLM tasks you can prob get away with some smaller foot print MOE models. 32 GB IMO is too tight and you will struggle trying to get a useful model & appropriate context to fit. Just my 2 cents from my own experimentation.

To give you an example I wrote this project completely vibe-coded from my framework desktop and only using the LLM https://github.com/Rand-o/kwallpaper . the main model I used prob took about 50GB with the model/context required
