PC Magik LabLocal models, real GPUs.

A technical exploration of AI performance on local hardware. No clouds, no APIs—just raw compute and honest benchmarks.

YouTube Channel Prompts & Results

Methodology

Consistent Baseline

Every test uses the same prompt and the same hardware rig to ensure an apples-to-apples comparison.

Single Variable

Only one variable is changed per test, isolating the impact of the specific modification being measured.

Clean Slate

The model is completely reloaded before every single run to prevent cache contamination and state leak.

Full Transparency

Every prompt used and every result file generated is published openly for community verification.

Hardware Rig

GPU NVIDIA RTX 3090 24 GB
Model Server LM Studio
Environment Local Windows / Linux

About the Series

PC Magik Lab is a dedicated series focused on the practical reality of running Large Language Models (LLMs) on consumer-grade hardware. By avoiding cloud abstractions and API limits, the lab explores how different quantizations, backends, and configurations affect actual performance on real, local GPUs.
