Assumptions
- Estimate, not a benchmark. Decode speed uses a memory-bandwidth model at 55–75% of peak.
- KV cache is FP16. Engine overhead assumes llama.cpp (0.3 GB + 1% of the weights). Ollama is closer to 0.9 GB + 3%, LM Studio closer to 1 GB + 3%.
- Q5_K_S size is the real GGUF file size from Hugging Face.
- 0.5 GB is reserved because this GPU also drives a display, then 5% of the rest is left free.
- Speed is quoted at 4K context, not at the maximum context that still fits.
