can it run
Yes, but close to the edge. 192GB against a 178GB working set: it runs, with little room for long context windows or other processes.
weights 142GB + KV cache 0.73GB at 4k context vs ~190GB usable → full. 142.7 GB needed of 190 GB usable — headroom for context
computed roofline: 256 GB/s × 0.60–0.85 efficiency window / 13.3GB (Q4_K_M) — bands, never points.
MoE: file is 142GB (that decides fit) but only ~22B of experts activate per token (~13.3GB streamed) — band below is the active-expert estimate, optimistic; community MoE rows run several× the naive bandwidth math
