I'd recommend Qwen 2.5 Coder. Just try to ask very direct questions with smaller context.
QWQ is a bit stronger at more advanced coding tasks but I had a ton of trouble finding a version that would fit in my 24G 7900xtx.
in your range 32b models work well give qwen coder a try
are you looking for autocomplete or chat?
Is there a different recommendation for autocomplete?
in general, you would want something fast (probably something that fits in your GPU/VRAM) so you can get suggestions as fast as you can type. for chat, you'll probably want the most intelligent/lorgest model you can run, it's likely fine if it's running on the CPU/RAM since the quality of an individual answer is more important than the speed in which many small answers can be generated. so, probably qwen for both, but, different sizes/quant for different use cases.
chat to start with
I'm running ollama 0.6.3 (pre-release) and rocm v6.10.5 on linux 6.11.0-21
Still getting
level=INFO source=gpu.go:377 msg="no compatible GPUs were discovered"
I have an RX 6700 XT and I needed to change an environment variable to make it work. Maybe something similar is needed for you GPU. I'd try googling something like "RX 9700 XT ROCM" or "RX 9700 XT ROCM no compatible GPUs were discovered" if you haven't done that already.
When I had my AMD GPU going the best way to get models running was kobold.cpp and using vulcan. The flag is like --usevulcan or something. Its way easier than getting a rocm fork working from source.
As others have already mentioned, try qwen2.5-cider. With 16 GB, you should be able to confortably fit a quantised version of the 14b variant into VRAM. You can also try the 32b variant, but it will be much slower because not all layers can be off-loaded to the GPU.
Deepseek r1 14b
Gemma (assuming you are ok with the license)
What's different about the Gemma license?
Not foss
Although foss is debatable in a foss context.
The one on top of your neck
Update: After updating to the latest kernel (6.14), and removing the old amdgpu drivers that i manually installed. I am now running on my GPU. I'm running deepseek coder 33B, and it generates approx 6 words/second.
what's that good looking gnome app?
That is mission centre, a flatpak app. It is quite nice.
Thanks!
ChatGPT works great too if you don't want to use ram
I am running local models only for privacy sensitive stuff. If you have ollama you can also setup openwebui and access both local and remote models through the same very nice interface! Also chatgpt API is much cheaper than subscribing.

Rule 2 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning models to cryptocurrency. I.E no comparing the usefulness of models to that of NFTs, no comparing the resource usage required to train a model is anything close to maintaining a blockchain/ mining for crypto, no implying its just a fad/bubble that will leave people with nothing of value when it burst.
Rule 3 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning to simple text prediction algorithms. I.E statements such as "llms are basically just simple text predictions like what your phone keyboard autocorrect uses, and they're still using the same algorithms since <over 10 years ago>.
