26.5 GB vs 6 GB usable — does not fit
~6GB usable · CPU (DDR3) · model file 26GB · 8x7B MoE
computed roofline: 25.6 GB/s × 0.45–0.70 efficiency window / 3.9GB (Q4_K_M) — bands, never points.
MoE: file is 26GB (that decides fit) but only ~1.05B of experts activate per token (~3.9GB streamed) — band below is the active-expert estimate, optimistic; community MoE rows run several× the naive bandwidth math
