How to Run Locally

Install Ollama then run: ollama run

Minimum VRAM: 6 GB. For best results use Q4_K_M quantization.

GLM-6 — Frequently Asked Questions

How much VRAM does GLM-6 need?

GLM-6 needs about 6 GB VRAM at Q4_K_M quantization for its smallest variant. Variants: GLM-6 9B (6 GB, Q4_K_M); GLM-6 355B-A32B (215 GB, Q4_K_M). On Apple Silicon, unified memory counts toward this requirement.

Can I run GLM-6 on an RTX 4090 (24 GB)?

Yes — GLM-6 runs on an RTX 4090 (24 GB) and other 24 GB cards such as the RTX 3090. Smaller variants also fit comfortably on 8–16 GB GPUs at Q4_K_M.

What quantization should I use for GLM-6?

Q4_K_M is the best balance of quality and VRAM for GLM-6 in most cases. Choose Q8_0 for near-lossless quality if you have spare VRAM, or smaller quants (Q3/Q2) only when memory is tight.

How do I run GLM-6 with Ollama?

Install Ollama, then run: ollama run . This downloads GLM-6 and starts a local, OpenAI-compatible endpoint — no internet connection is needed after the initial download.
