can it run

Can the Tesla M40 (24GB, used) run GLM-5.3-Flash (Ox Alpha)?

NO

No. 24GB of memory can't hold the 205GB working set this model needs. A smaller quant or a bigger machine is required.

~8.7–16 tok/s (active-expert estimate)

weights 164GB + KV cache 2GB at 4k context vs ~24GB usable → no. 166.0 GB vs 24 GB usable — does not fit

computed roofline: 288 GB/s × 0.28–0.50 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
