- How much VRAM does Huihui MoE 0.8B 2E need?
Huihui MoE 0.8B 2E requires 0.9 GB of VRAM at Q4_K_M, or 2.1 GB at BF16. Full 41K context adds up to 2.2 GB (3.2 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 860M × 4.8 bits ÷ 8 = 0.5 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 0.4 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 2.7 GB (at full 41K context)
VRAM usage by quantization
Q4_K_M0.9 GBQ4_K_M + full context3.2 GB- What's the best quantization for Huihui MoE 0.8B 2E?
For Huihui MoE 0.8B 2E, Q4_K_M (0.9 GB) offers the best balance of quality and VRAM usage. Q5_K_M (1.0 GB) provides better quality if you have the VRAM. The smallest option is Q2_K at 0.8 GB.

- Can I run Huihui MoE 0.8B 2E on a Mac?
Huihui MoE 0.8B 2E requires at least 0.8 GB at Q2_K, which exceeds the unified memory of most consumer Macs. You would need a Mac Studio or Mac Pro with a high-memory configuration.
- Can I run Huihui MoE 0.8B 2E locally?
Yes — Huihui MoE 0.8B 2E can run locally on consumer hardware. At Q4_K_M quantization it needs 0.9 GB of VRAM. Popular tools include Ollama, LM Studio, and llama.cpp.
- How fast is Huihui MoE 0.8B 2E?
At Q4_K_M, Huihui MoE 0.8B 2E can reach ~174 tok/s on AMD Instinct MI350X. On NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090: ~396 tok/s. Speed depends mainly on GPU memory bandwidth. Real-world results typically within ±20%.
tok/s = (bandwidth GB/s ÷ model GB) × efficiency
Example: NVIDIA B200 → 8000 ÷ 0.9 × 0.65 = ~601 tok/s
Estimated speed at Q4_K_M (0.9 GB)
~601 tok/s~396 tok/s~601 tok/s~574 tok/sReal-world results typically within ±20%. Speed depends on batch size, quantization kernel, and software stack.
- What's the download size of Huihui MoE 0.8B 2E?
At Q4_K_M, the download is about 0.52 GB. The full-precision BF16 version is 1.72 GB. The smallest option (Q2_K) is 0.37 GB.
- Which GPUs can run Huihui MoE 0.8B 2E?
