What are you wanting to do with the model?
Agentic development with that setup, you can easily run a good quant of Qwen3.6-27B at full context. unsloth/Qwen3.6-27B-MTP Q5_K_XL and use a fixed template
Creative writing? Probably need a different model. I’ve heard good things about Gemma 4 31B.
Both of those are dense models so won’t be as fast as Qwen3.6-35B-A3B. Also play around with MTP, quants, KV cache quant, KV caching, etc.
The RAM size will limit you on larger models unless you stream from storage.


If you customize nanorc then you can also point and click with the mouse and highlight text and copy/paste like it was a GUI from the terminal. Most people shiting on Nano just never learned it because they learned the editor they are familiar with. Same reason I shit on vim.
