Considering upgrading from 3700x to 8700g

I am getting into AI right now using LocalLLMs.

I have a 6700XT 12GB video card currently with the 3700x

Everything is running decently but wonder if going to a 8700G will help me load larger LLMs. Currently I am capped at 9-10gb Q4 models

I do play games so I want to keep the 6700XT for that.

Will I be able to load larger LLMs using this config?

I am running BackyardAI 37.0 final (the last free version) and have a lot of stories going at the moment so changing to a new program is not really an option as I do not want to lose my stories.
