## Purpose
Run Qwen3.8-27B on Ryzen AI Max+ 395, compare 64GB and 128GB systems, llama.cpp performance and current mini PC options.

## Direct answer
For most local users, start with Q4_K_M and enough memory to leave real headroom: a 24GB discrete GPU is a practical entry class, 32GB is more comfortable, and 64GB to 128GB unified-memory systems provide much more flexibility for context and larger quantizations.
