Let's take another look at the GPUs that actually make sense for local AI and LLMs in late 2026, and try not to lose our minds regardless of the absurd market conditions.

We'll go through NVIDIA, AMD and Intel, CUDA/ROCm/SYCL and software compatibility, important parameters to look at, the current 12GB/16GB/24GB/32GB options, and then some more. I hope that after watching this video you'll be able to decide on the right GPU for you, whether new, or second-hand.

Note: GPU prices shown in the video are an approximate U.S. market snapshot from August 2026. Prices can and will change going forward (hopefully for the better).


Cards I think are still worth checking out:
