Any tool that tells you the cheapest setup needed to run a model? I want to know the cheapest setup that can realistically run Qwen 3.6 27B at decent speeds.

I’m looking for a tool or calculator that can estimate the minimum hardware needed to run a specific model locally.

For example, I want to know the cheapest setup that can realistically run Qwen 3.6 27B at decent speeds. Ideally something that can tell me:

- Required VRAM for different quantizations

- Whether it fits on a single GPU or needs multiple GPUs

- Expected tokens/sec

- RAM and CPU recommendations

- Power usage and rough total system cost

- Comparisons between setups like used 3090s vs newer cards

Does anything like this exist?

I know there are scattered benchmarks and Reddit posts, but I’m hoping there’s a more systematic tool or database people use when planning a local AI build.
