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 32.8 GB at Q8_0. 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)
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 34.7 GB (at full 131K context)
VRAM usage by quantization
Q4_K_M20.0 GBQ4_K_M + full context53.9 GB- Can NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 run Cogito V1 Preview Qwen 32B?
Yes, at Q5_K_M (23.6 GB) or lower. Higher quantizations like Q5_K_L (24.0 GB) exceed the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090's 24 GB.
- What's the best quantization for Cogito V1 Preview Qwen 32B?
For Cogito V1 Preview Qwen 32B, Q4_K_M (20.0 GB) offers the best balance of quality and VRAM usage. Q4_K_L (20.4 GB) provides better quality if you have the VRAM. The smallest option is IQ2_XS at 10.4 GB.
