# Local LLM Setup with IPEX-LLM on Intel GPU

:::info
[**IPEX-LLM**](https://github.com/intel-analytics/ipex-llm) is a PyTorch library for running LLM on Intel CPU and GPU (e.g., local PC with iGPU, discrete GPU such as Arc A-Series, Flex and Max) with very low latency.
:::

This tutorial demonstrates how to setup Open WebUI with **IPEX-LLM accelerated Ollama backend hosted on Intel GPU**. By following this guide, you will be able to setup Open WebUI even on a low-cost PC (i.e. only with integrated GPU), and achieve a smooth experience.

## Start Ollama Serve on Intel GPU

Refer to [this guide](https://ipex-llm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/doc/LLM/Quickstart/ollama_quickstart.html) from IPEX-LLM official documentation about how to install and run Ollama serve accelerated by IPEX-LLM on Intel GPU.

:::tip
If you would like to reach the Ollama serve from another machine, make sure you set or export the environment variable `OLLAMA_HOST=0.0.0.0` before executing the command `ollama serve`.
