can it run
No. 12GB of memory can't hold the 205GB working set this model needs. A smaller quant or a bigger machine is required.
weights 164GB + KV cache 2GB at 4k context vs ~6GB usable → no. 166.0 GB vs 6 GB usable — does not fit
computed roofline: 336 GB/s × 0.48–0.72 efficiency window / 9.2GB (Q4_K_M) — bands, never points.
MoE: file is 164GB (that decides fit) but only ~18B of experts activate per token (~9.2GB streamed) — band below is the active-expert estimate, optimistic; community MoE rows run several× the naive bandwidth math
