Hey everyone! I've dabbled a bit in PC building but haven't kept up with the latest tech trends for the past 5 or 6 years. I recently got interested in AI and want to run some models locally, but my old ROG GL503VM laptop just isn't cutting it anymore. So, I've been looking into used PCs and found one that has an i9-10850K processor, RTX 3070 GPU, 32GB RAM, a 1TB SSD, and a 2TB HDD. I managed to snag it for $500. Do you think this is a good deal? I know the processor is a bit older, but given the price, would you jump on this?

Yeah, that's a solid deal. Everything looks pretty good for the price you paid!
You’d ideally want a GPU with at least 12GB of VRAM for running larger models effectively, maybe even 16GB if you're aiming high. But overall, not a bad setup!
Thanks for the tip! So apart from the GPU, is the rest of the setup decent? Just focusing on upgrading that?
