I bought a pretty powerful desktop computer for gaming in late 2025. It came with an RTX 5080, which I started using to run some local LLMs and run some experiments (most recently, I was trying to get agents to get better at playing Zork I).
I've mostly enjoyed having WSL to leverage Linux dev tools, but it seems like it's still adding overhead that prevents me from taking advantage of the GPU in full, so I'll likely get another drive and install Linux.
I tried Qwen, Llama, Mistral and Gemma. Gemma 4 was pretty impressive.
