Running AI locally?

Nope. Running a windows guest for legacy development (50GB for few bigger visual studio projects and other related apps) then Rider, Android Studio, IntelliJ, podman and other apps native on Linux, often switching between them. 128GB is a bit much even for this, but it is never bad to have same free space just in case. The only downside is that I bought 4 DDR5 modules only to later find out that they put a break on speed as AMD really prefers 2 of them.

50 GB in memory for a visual studio/programming project being a bigger project seems like rather an understatement, unless you're working on machine learning, simulations, or something of that nature.
