Written by Jakub Rusinowski · Last updated July 12, 2026
No — MiMo-V2-Pro 1T+ at Q4_K_M needs 610.3 GB at 8K context (603.8 GB weights + 6.5 GB KV cache/overhead), and the Apple M3 Ultra's 384 GB usable memory leaves it ~226.3 GB short.

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 512 GB of unified memory. 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 Apple M3 Ultra: 8K 610.3 GB ✗ · 32K 627.6 GB ✗ · 128K 696.9 GB ✗. Past 8K it no longer fits 512 GB — a q8_0 KV cache buys roughly half of that back, which the calculator will price for you.
Why It Does Not Fit
Every MiMo-V2-Pro variant requires more VRAM than the Apple M3 Ultra provides (512 GB).
MiMo-V2-Pro needs ~610 GB but this GPU has 512 GB. Rent a 8× H100 (640 GB)-class GPU by the hour instead of buying one:
