Minimum VRAM
~14GB
Context
16K tokens

Recommended: RTX 4090 24GB. VRAM is an estimate and increases with context, cache, concurrency, and runtime overhead.

GPU deployment scenarios

Estimated from parameter count and quantisation. Will switch to “Verified by Badgr” once a real run backs a tier.

Testing

RTX 4090 24GB

Short context, low concurrency

Small production

L40S 48GB

8K context, 1-4 concurrent requests

Higher throughput

A100 80GB

32K context, continuous batching

Large production

RTX 4090 24GB

Higher concurrency

Estimated — multimodal inputs, long context, and concurrency all increase real VRAM use beyond this estimate.

Also runs well on L40S 48GB, A100 40GB. Available in United States, Europe.
