Assumes a 4K-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 12 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 4070: 8K 15.7 GB ✗ · 32K 20.5 GB ✗ · 125K 39.2 GB ✗. Past 8K it no longer fits 12 GB — a q8_0 KV cache buys roughly half of that back, which the calculator will price for you.

What to do next

Quantize to Q2_K. That is the cheapest fix — it costs some quality but no money.

No compatible GPU? Devstral on 16 GB of system RAM, CPU only: runs, but it is tight.
