I'm lookig for a model which I would run in my actual setup I have a RTX 5070 TI, 32gb ram ddr4 and ryzen 7 5800x. I want to use this model to help with many tasks as code

Let me check the docs paths so I can give a clean answer instead of guessing.

For OpenClaw, I would not use a small local model as your main coding model on that machine.

Short version:

  • Qwen 4B-class is too small for reliable coding + tool use in OpenClaw.
  • With a 5070 Ti-class GPU, local is still workable, but mostly for lighter prompts and with more latency.
  • If you want the best experience, use a strong cloud model as primary and keep a local model as fallback/privacy option.
  • If you want local anyway, use the largest full-size model you can fit, and avoid tiny/heavily quantized builds.

OpenClaw’s docs are pretty blunt about this:

  • a single 24 GB GPU only really works for lighter prompts
  • local setups should use the largest model you can run
  • smaller models are worse for tool calling and prompt-injection safety
