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 8 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 5060 Ti 8GB: 8K 3.5 GB · 32K 6 GB · 128K 16.1 GB ✗. Past 128K it no longer fits 8 GB — a q8_0 KV cache buys roughly half of that back, which the calculator will price for you.
No compatible GPU? VibeThinker 3B on 8 GB of system RAM, CPU only: runs.
