Frequently Asked Questions
- How much VRAM does INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic need?
INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic requires 34.6 GB of VRAM at Q4_K_M, or 114.5 GB at BF16. Full 131K context adds up to 8.1 GB (42.7 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 57.0B × 4.8 bits ÷ 8 = 34.2 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 0.4 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 8.5 GB (at full 131K context)
VRAM usage by quantization
Q4_K_M34.6 GBQ4_K_M + full context42.7 GB- Can NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 run INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic?
Yes, at Q3_K_M (28.2 GB) or lower. Higher quantizations like Q4_K_M (34.6 GB) exceed the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090's 32 GB.
- What's the best quantization for INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic?
For INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic, Q4_K_M (34.6 GB) offers the best balance of quality and VRAM usage. Q5_K_M (41.0 GB) provides better quality if you have the VRAM. The smallest option is Q2_K at 24.7 GB.

- Can I run INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic on a Mac?
INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic requires at least 24.7 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 INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic locally?
Yes — INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic can run locally on consumer hardware. At Q4_K_M quantization it needs 34.6 GB of VRAM. Popular tools include Ollama, LM Studio, and llama.cpp.
- How fast is INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic?
At Q4_K_M, INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic can reach ~127 tok/s on AMD Instinct MI350X. 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 ÷ 34.6 × 0.65 = ~150 tok/s
Estimated speed at Q4_K_M (34.6 GB)
~150 tok/s~150 tok/s~127 tok/sReal-world results typically within ±20%. Speed depends on batch size, quantization kernel, and software stack.
- What's the download size of INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic?
At Q4_K_M, the download is about 34.21 GB. The full-precision BF16 version is 114.02 GB. The smallest option (Q2_K) is 24.23 GB.
- Which GPUs can run INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic?
No single consumer GPU has enough VRAM to run INTELLECT 3 REAP 50 Heretic at Q4_K_M (34.6 GB). Multi-GPU or professional hardware is required.
