Rune 26B-A4B v3 — VRAM & local setup
Autor: Jakub Rusinowski · Ostatnia aktualizacja:
Model decyzyjny Mixture-of-Experts 26B od Surogate (4B aktywnych) na Gemma 4 26B-A4B, przyjmujący obrazy. Najwyżej oceniany model do pobrania w migawce Decision Index 0.2.1 z 28 września 2026; obsługiwany przez surogate serve.
Rune 26B-A4B v3 potrzebuje około 16 GB VRAM przy Q4_K_M — skwantyzowane wagi plus narzut frameworka, bez pamięci podręcznej KV. Na Apple Silicon ta wartość pochodzi z pamięci zunifikowanej.

Hardware fit
Weights plus overhead plus the KV cache at a 8,192-token prompt, on NVIDIA RTX 4090 (24 GB). A publisher build is sized from its file; the other rows are modelled at a standard quant. Decision requests are short, so no long-context figure is shown. Image tokens are not modelled: each image adds to the prompt, so a request with images needs more memory than these rows.

Published file size: BF16 51.6 GB. A download size from the model publisher — not a VRAM requirement.
The repository is named “-GGUF” but holds BF16 safetensors (11 shards, 51.6 GB), and it is gated: accept its terms on Hugging Face before downloading. The Decision Index served it with surogate serve (v1.5.3) at POST /v1/decisions, not /v1/systemone. The model card could not be read, so its context length, thinking mode and calibration controls are not listed here.

Rune 26B-A4B v3 — najczęściej zadawane pytania
What is Rune 26B-A4B v3?
Rune 26B-A4B v3 is a decision model: you send it a state and typed questions (choice, yes/no/unknown, or a score) and it returns one answer per question with a probability for every option. It is not a chat model.
How do I run Rune 26B-A4B v3 locally?
Served by surogate serve. This model does not run in Ollama.
How much memory does Rune 26B-A4B v3 need?
About 16 GB for the weights plus overhead at Q4_K_M, before the prompt's KV cache. Decision prompts are short, so the cache stays small.
How accurate is Rune 26B-A4B v3?
Its published score is on the community Decision Index 0.2.1, which its authors did not build. It is not a calibration guarantee: test on your own examples.
