Can you run it?

Estimated VRAM at 8K context unless noted. Pick your hardware to see the verdict per quantization.

File	Quant	Size	Est. VRAM	Verdict on RTX 4090 · 24 GB
model.safetensors	i32	2.7 GB	4.0 GB	✅ Runs comfortably
model.safetensors (bf16, full)	bf16 + 32K ctx	2.7 GB	5.5 GB	✅ Runs comfortably

Estimate: file size × 1.1 + KV cache at 8K + 0.5 GB overhead. Not a benchmark — how we calculate this.
