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 24 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 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090: 8K 20.7 GB · 32K 26 GB ✗ · 128K 47.4 GB ✗. Past 32K it no longer fits 24 GB — a q8_0 KV cache buys roughly half of that back, which the calculator will price for you.

No compatible GPU? Nemotron 3 Nano Omni 30B-A3B on 16 GB of system RAM, CPU only: runs, but it is tight.
