Funny enough, I have the 1080 and I tested qwen 3.5 9b on it today. I was positively surprised with the experience. It's no Opus but it did OK on the couple of queries and tasks I gave it. It's pretty impressive for a 10 year old gpu!

If it had more vram it could really cook. Qwen3.6-35b-a3b quantized to 3bits is genuinely usable for coding running on the ten year old pascal card with 16gb i picked up recently.
