UnverifiedOllama uses quantization schemes such as Q4_K_M by default, reducing the VRAM requirement for a 31B-parameter model from approximately 62GB (FP16) to approximately 20GB.75% similarUnverifiedIn an experimental configuration, Ollama identifies the 840M as having approximately 16 GB of VRAM (16193 MiB), with about 14.6 GiB available for the Vulkan device at load time.72% similarUnverifiedIn tests with the 4-bit quantized version (fitting entirely into 32 GB of VRAM), Ollama reached 240 tokens/s while FreeToken reached 225 tokens/s, making Ollama actually faster.71% similarVerifiedRunning Muse Glimmer at full precision requires 55 GB of VRAM, which is compressed to under 20 GB via 4-bit quantization, allowing it to run on consumer-grade GPUs with 24 GB of VRAM.68% similarVerifiedA 30B parameter model that originally required 60 GB of VRAM can run on consumer-grade GPUs with 16 GB or even 8 GB of VRAM after quantization.67% similar
