I do love using local models when I can, but qwen-35B is the best model I can run, and while its an insanely good local model, it does not compare to the big ones.

Have you tried the latest Gemma? You might prefer it to Qwen, depending on what you're doing.
I did, but in almost everything I tried even qwen3.5 was better, and 3.6 was a huge step up.
Good to know, did you also try non-coding or is that what you use it for? For tasks unrelated to coding we've generally preferred Gemma.
So far I have done coding projects only, but I have some ideas for some non-coding agent projects in the future, so I'll give Gemma another shot
