One C# radio-player prompt benchmarks Qwen 27B, Next Flash vs GPT 6.1 Sol one-shot
Perfect-Campaign9551 · reddit · 2026-10-12
A Reddit user benchmarked local models with a single prompt: a Cconsole TUI internet radio player (RTX 3090).
- Qwen 3.8 27B (Llama, 119K ctx, 70 tok/s): better on code than Next Flash, found the streaming URL itself, great debugging and probe-app habits, but needed many rounds to fix playback and the audio level meter.
- Qwen 3.8 Next Flash (Strata, 128K, 120 tok/s): burned half the tokens hunting the URL; once given it, chose to decode MP3 packets itself, causing more errors — but its TUI layout was excellent on the first try; level meter still slightly out of sync.
- GPT 6.1 Sol (High reasoning): one-shot the prompt with a WPF UI, Cplayback engine, plus working station search and favorites — 100% correct out of the box.
Takeaway: local models persist and debug well, but complex audio scenarios still lag frontier closed models.
