Frequently Asked Questions

How much VRAM does Cogito V1 Preview Qwen 32B need?

Cogito V1 Preview Qwen 32B requires 20.0 GB of VRAM at Q4_K_M, or 64.8 GB at BF16. Full 131K context adds up to 33.8 GB (53.9 GB total).

VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead

Weights = 32B × 4.8 bits ÷ 8 = 19.2 GB

KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 0.8 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)

Fit ratings and hardware model lists check this model with room for a 16K-token context, which needs a little more memory.

KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 34.7 GB (at full 131K context)
