llama-modchip alternatives
synchopate/llama-modchip (189 stars, +138 this week): Run 284B DeepSeek-V4-Flash (<59GiB RAM, 44.4 tok/s pp, 9.1-14.7 tok/s) & 30B MoEs (25-111 tok/s) on a pure 64GB CPU at 256K ctx (0 GPUs).
Below are 5 other repos tracked by OSS Radar that share GitHub topics with llama-modchip: 1 from Local LLMs sharing at least two about what they do, and 4 from other categories sharing at least three topics about what they do (platform, language and framework tags don't count), two of them niche rather than broad ones like llm, ordered by how closely their topics overlap (rarer shared topics count more), then by stars gained in the last 7 days. Topic overlap means a similar problem space, not a drop-in replacement, so check each project's README.
