Autocomplete, refactoring, explaining unfamiliar code. Punishes small models harder than chat does.

What we would try first

  • Qwen3 Coder 30B A3B 20 GB at Q4 Purpose-built for code, Mixture-of-Experts so only ~3B activates per token. Fast and unusually good at long files. One of the most-downloaded quantised models on the hub.
  • Qwen3 32B 24 GB at Q4 The best quality you can run on a single consumer card. Noticeably better at coding and multi-step tasks than any 8B model.
  • Qwen3 8B 8 GB at Q4 The default answer for most people with 16 GB or a 12 GB card. Start here, and only look elsewhere if it fails at something specific.
