Turing entry without RT/Tensor cores. 4 GB VRAM keeps it at the practical floor — 1-3B Q4 only. The 'I built a budget gaming PC' audience runs into VRAM walls almost immediately. Still works for tiny model experiments.
Sub-scores sum to 291 / 1000. Headline = 291 × 0.70 (Estimated-confidence discount) = 204. This is an algorithmic performance-tier score — distinct from, and often lower than, the editorial “Our verdict” below, which weighs value and real-world fit (especially for hardware we haven’t measured yet).
