Frequently Asked Questions
How much VRAM does Josiefied Qwen2.5 Coder 14B Instruct Abliterated V1 need?
Josiefied Qwen2.5 Coder 14B Instruct Abliterated V1 requires 9.6 GB of VRAM at Q4_K_M, or 30.2 GB at BF16. Full 33K context adds up to 6.0 GB (15.6 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 14.8B × 4.8 bits ÷ 8 = 8.9 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 0.7 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 ≈ 6.7 GB (at full 33K context)
VRAM usage by quantization
Can NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 run Josiefied Qwen2.5 Coder 14B Instruct Abliterated V1?
Yes, at Q8_0 (15.5 GB) or lower. Higher quantizations like BF16 (30.2 GB) exceed the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090's 24 GB.
What's the best quantization for Josiefied Qwen2.5 Coder 14B Instruct Abliterated V1?
For Josiefied Qwen2.5 Coder 14B Instruct Abliterated V1, Q4_K_M (9.6 GB) offers the best balance of quality and VRAM usage. Q5_K_M (11.2 GB) provides better quality if you have the VRAM. The smallest option is Q2_K at 7.0 GB.
VRAM requirement by quantization
★ Recommended — best balance of quality and VRAM usage.
