02How much VRAM it needs (estimate)
Total = weights + 10% + 0.5GB overhead + KV cache for one request (FP16 KV). More concurrent users multiply the KV column.
| Precision | Weights | Smallest GPU | Mac |
|---|---|---|---|
| BF16 / FP16 (original) | 22.2 GB | RTX 5090 32GB | Mac 64GB |
| FP8 / INT8 / Q8_0 | 11.8 GB | 16GB GPU | Mac 24GB |
| 4-bit (Q4_K_M / AWQ / GPTQ-Int4) | 6.7 GB | 12GB GPU | Mac 16GB |
KV cache not estimated: the official config.json is gated or lacks attention parameters. Totals above are weights + overhead only.
Bits per weight: BF16 16, FP8 8.5, 4-bit 4.85. “Fits” = total ≤ 90% of memory; Mac GPU can use ~2/3 of unified memory (≤36GB) or ~3/4 (larger). For MoE, all experts must be in memory, so size by total parameters. Method →
