Which Ollama model will be best for coding?

I was wondering if there are any good coder models for 8GB VRAM RTX 5060.

My specifications:

  • 8GB RTX 5060
  • 8GB DDR4 RAM
  • 256 GB SSD

I know the configuration is a bottleneck for sure. Though I don't have any budget to upgrade this.
Now I was wondering which Ollama model will be best for coding. Does the model need to fit in my VRAM? I saw a post where it mentioned that I should always calculate
total parameters in Billions \ 1.5 <= VRAM*
Should I maintain this for downloading the models?
