4GB fits 3B/4B Q4 fully; 7B/8B Q4 offloads (CPU-bound, single digits) No tensor cores: dp4a INT8 kernels only Pascal deprecated in CUDA 13+ — pin older llama.cpp builds or use Vulkan
⚠ Laptop part — mobile clocks and thermals run below desktop sibling speeds; treat the band as optimistic for sustained load.
→explore the full catalogupgrade paths with live prices · what fits on each machinecomputed band 6.1-11.0 tok/s for 8B Q4_K_M (roofline, 112.1 GB/s VRAM)
Effective decode window: 0.28–0.50 of 112.1 GB/s nominal → ~31–56 GB/s effective (llama.cpp decode, Q4_K_M basis; arch window, community-calibrated)
→ 13b-q4 no 14.6 GB vs 4 GB usable — does not fit
→ 3b-q4 full 2.8 GB needed of 4 GB usable — headroom for context
→ 4b-q4 tight 3.7 of 4 GB usable — keep context modest
→ 8b-q4 no 6.1 GB vs 4 GB usable — does not fit
no single-card bench published — band is computed (see notes)
