- How much VRAM does Llm Jp 3.1 13B Instruct4 need?
Llm Jp 3.1 13B Instruct4 requires 10.2 GB of VRAM at Q4_K_M, or 29.4 GB at BF16. Full 4K context adds up to 1.7 GB (11.9 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 13.7B × 4.8 bits ÷ 8 = 8.2 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 2 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 3.7 GB (at full 4K context)
VRAM usage by quantization
Q4_K_M10.2 GBQ4_K_M + full context11.9 GB- Can NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 run Llm Jp 3.1 13B Instruct4?
Yes, at Q8_0 (15.7 GB) or lower. Higher quantizations like BF16 (29.4 GB) exceed the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090's 24 GB.
- What's the best quantization for Llm Jp 3.1 13B Instruct4?
For Llm Jp 3.1 13B Instruct4, Q4_K_M (10.2 GB) offers the best balance of quality and VRAM usage. Q5_K_M (11.7 GB) provides better quality if you have the VRAM. The smallest option is Q2_K at 7.8 GB.

- Can I run Llm Jp 3.1 13B Instruct4 on a Mac?
Llm Jp 3.1 13B Instruct4 requires at least 7.8 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 Llm Jp 3.1 13B Instruct4 locally?
Yes — Llm Jp 3.1 13B Instruct4 can run locally on consumer hardware. At Q4_K_M quantization it needs 10.2 GB of VRAM. Popular tools include Ollama, LM Studio, and llama.cpp.
- How fast is Llm Jp 3.1 13B Instruct4?
At Q4_K_M, Llm Jp 3.1 13B Instruct4 can reach ~431 tok/s on AMD Instinct MI350X. On NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090: ~64 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 ÷ 10.2 × 0.65 = ~510 tok/s
Estimated speed at Q4_K_M (10.2 GB)
~510 tok/s~64 tok/s~510 tok/s~431 tok/sReal-world results typically within ±20%. Speed depends on batch size, quantization kernel, and software stack.
