Frequently Asked Questions
- How much VRAM does Huihui GPT OSS 20B BF16 Abliterated need?
Huihui GPT OSS 20B BF16 Abliterated requires 12.1 GB of VRAM at IQ4_NL, or 21.3 GB at Q8_0. Full 131K context adds up to 4.4 GB (16.6 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 20.9B × 4.5 bits ÷ 8 = 11.8 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 0.3 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 4.8 GB (at full 131K context)
