Local models, real GPUs.
A YouTube series exploring the performance and nuances of running cutting-edge AI models on local hardware.
To ensure scientific integrity and repeatable results, every test follows a strict protocol.
Same prompt, same rig. We isolate variables to ensure that any change in performance is due to the model or hardware settings being tested.
Only one thing changes per test run. This allows for precise benchmarking and clear understanding of performance bottlenecks.
The model is reloaded before every single run to prevent VRAM fragmentation or memory leaks from affecting subsequent results.
Full accountability. Every prompt used and every resulting file is published to our repository for anyone to verify.
24 GB VRAM
Model Server: LM Studio
PC Magik Lab is a deep dive into the practical side of local AI. We strip away the hype to see how these models actually behave on consumer hardware, providing a transparent look at the performance of LLMs in a real-world setting.
