    • Best model for programming?

    Jump

  • in general, you would want something fast (probably something that fits in your GPU/VRAM) so you can get suggestions as fast as you can type. for chat, you'll probably want the most intelligent/lorgest model you can run, it's likely fine if it's running on the CPU/RAM since the quality of an individual answer is more important than the speed in which many small answers can be generated. so, probably qwen for both, but, different sizes/quant for different use cases.
