Can I Run Devstral on Intel Arc B570?
Written by Jakub Rusinowski · Last updated September 11, 2026
No — Devstral 2 22B at Q4_K_M needs 15.7 GB at 8K context (13.3 GB weights + 2.4 GB KV cache/overhead), and the Intel Arc B570's 10 GB leaves it ~5.7 GB short. The cheapest card that runs it is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU (16 GB).

Assumes an 8K-token context with an f16 KV cache, on an estimated architecture — this model publishes no config we can read. A longer window needs more; a quantized KV cache needs less. “Max context” is the largest window that still fits in 10 GB. Figures are estimates from parameter count, quantization and memory bandwidth — the analyzer lets you tune KV-cache quant and context.
Context costs VRAM too. At Q4_K_M on the Intel Arc B570: 8K 15.7 GB ✗ · 32K 20.5 GB ✗ · 125K 39.2 GB ✗. Past 8K it no longer fits 10 GB — a q8_0 KV cache buys roughly half of that back, which the calculator will price for you.
No compatible GPU? Devstral 2 22B on 16 GB of system RAM, CPU only: runs, but it is tight.
Why It Does Not Fit
Every Devstral variant requires more VRAM than the Intel Arc B570 provides (10 GB).
Nearest GPU That Fits
