Does Golem-70B-v1b fit in 8GB of VRAM?

Figures are GiB of total memory: weights plus KV cache plus compute buffer and backend overhead. Weights and KV are near-exact; the overhead term is modeled. Hover any cell for the breakdown.

A capacity is not a card. Whether a model fits depends only on memory, so every figure above holds for any 8GB accelerator. How fast it runs depends on memory bandwidth, which varies several-fold between cards of the same capacity — so putting a tokens-per-second number here would be inventing one. Pick a specific card from hardware and the speed column appears.

A parameters × bits ÷ 8 estimate ignores two things that dominate at long context. First, the weights themselves are not the nominal rate — quantizations are mixtures, so the real file is consistently larger than the label implies. Second, the KV cache grows linearly with context and, past about 32K, becomes larger than the weights for many models.
