105 more models in the catalog do not fit this default profile, or ranked below the first 40 that do.

Example: Tight fit fully on your RTX A5000 at Q5_K_S, 4K context, about 19–25 tok/s. Weights 21.0 GB plus 0.24 GB of KV cache — 21.7 GB of 22.3 GB usable. Weights shown in the verdict use GiB (the same 1024³ counting as GPU memory).
