Frequently Asked Questions
- How much VRAM does Zephyr Orpo 141B A35b v0.1 need?
Zephyr Orpo 141B A35b v0.1 requires 282.0 GB of VRAM at BF16. Full 66K context adds up to 14.6 GB (296.6 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 140.6B × 16 bits ÷ 8 = 281.2 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 0.8 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 15.4 GB (at full 66K context)
