Suggestion - FAQ w Physical System Requirements,

Open LaughterOnWater opened this issue 9 months ago • 1 comments

Would you consider adding a beginner's FAQ section or a 'Physical System Requirements' note that provides guidance on the recommended computer specs for optimal performance with Unsloth? This would help new users avoid frustration and ensure they have the necessary resources to run the model successfully. A simple table or paragraph mentioning the minimum/recommended CPU, GPU, RAM, and storage requirements would be very useful.

Including links to beginner-friendly tutorials, videos, or documentation on setting up Unsloth locally could make it more accessible to us noobs. Links on how to get started in a Google colab or AWS hosted solution could also lower barriers for those who don't have a capable local system.

It might be nice to get a clue on how long it takes to fine-tune, likely sweet-spot settings to mess with, etc.

This might ease the overall beginner experience and make Unsloth more approachable for a broader audience.
