Qwen 3.8-27 tips for my setup

Hi everyone, I’m an AI newcomer eager to learn and experiment. I’m comfortable with coding on my own, but I want to explore the AI ​​world—specifically for code review. I have two separate setups depending on my location: 1) Minisforum Ryzen 9 HX 370 AI with 64GB DDR5 RAM + OCuLink eGPU (AMD W7800, 48GB VRAM) 2) Beelink SER5 Max Ryzen 7 6800U with 32GB DDR5 RAM + OCuLink eGPU (AMD R7900 XTX, 24GB VRAM) Both setups run Windows 11, though I’m open to switching to Linux if it would improve performance. For the LLM, I use Qwen 3.8-27b (Q8 on the W7800, Q4 on the R7900 via Vulkan) for code review, as mentioned. I started out using LM Studio but have since switched to VS Code with Cline. Could you please offer some advice on optimal settings for this model and, if possible, tips on how to best configure VS Code with Cline? I’d like to switch to Ollama and move away from LM Studio (hoping for a smoother experience). Thanks in advance—and apologies if these questions seem basic; I’m just trying to learn as I go. Thanks!
