Should You Buy nVidia RTX 5070ti 16gb GPU for Local AI? Qwen 3.6 Agents?

From the creator

The 5070ti 16gb even a year after it's initial release is still one of the most compelling options for running local AI, especially in the age of local AI agents like Open Claw and Hermes! This GPU is also an exceptional choice for local video models like LTX and Flux. I go over why this GPU is still an incredible value and the best models to use with this GPU and where it falls short.
