Frequently Asked Questions
How much VRAM does Goetia 24B V1.4 need?
Goetia 24B V1.4 requires 14.9 GB of VRAM at Q4_K_M, or 47.9 GB at BF16. Full 131K context adds up to 26.4 GB (41.3 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 23.6B × 4.8 bits ÷ 8 = 14.1 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 0.8 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
Fit ratings and hardware model lists check this model with room for a 16K-token context, which needs a little more memory.
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 27.2 GB (at full 131K context)
VRAM usage by quantization
Can NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 run Goetia 24B V1.4?
Yes, at Q6_K (20.2 GB) or lower. Higher quantizations like Q8_0 (24.3 GB) exceed the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090's 24 GB.
What's the best quantization for Goetia 24B V1.4?
For Goetia 24B V1.4, Q4_K_M (14.9 GB) offers the best balance of quality and VRAM usage. Q5_K_M (17.5 GB) provides better quality if you have the VRAM. The smallest option is Q2_K at 10.7 GB.
VRAM requirement by quantization
★ Recommended — best balance of quality and VRAM usage.
Can I run Goetia 24B V1.4 on a Mac?
Yes — MacBook Pro 14" M3 Pro (18 GB) and 108 other Macs can run Goetia 24B V1.4, the smallest at Q2_K. Apple Silicon uses unified memory, so the model shares RAM with the system. At Q4_K_M you need at least 14.9 GB of usable unified memory (RAM minus macOS overhead), from Mac Mini M5 Pro (24 GB).
Can I run Goetia 24B V1.4 locally?
Yes — Goetia 24B V1.4 can run locally on consumer hardware. Popular tools include Ollama, LM Studio, and llama.cpp.
How fast is Goetia 24B V1.4?
At Q4_K_M, Goetia 24B V1.4 can reach ~323 tok/s on AMD Instinct MI350X. On NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090: ~44 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 ÷ 14.86 × 0.65 = ~350 tok/s
Estimated speed at Q4_K_M (14.9 GB)
Real-world results typically within ±20%. Speed depends on batch size, quantization kernel, and software stack.
What's the download size of Goetia 24B V1.4?
At Q4_K_M, the download is about 14.14 GB. The full-precision BF16 version is 47.14 GB. The smallest option (Q2_K) is 10.02 GB.
Which GPUs can run Goetia 24B V1.4?
26 consumer GPUs can run Goetia 24B V1.4 at Q4_K_M. Top options include AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti, AMD Radeon RX 6800. 7 GPUs have plenty of headroom for comfortable inference.
Which devices can run Goetia 24B V1.4?
122 devices with unified memory can run Goetia 24B V1.4 at Q4_K_M (14.9 GB), including AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 (Strix Point) Laptop, ASUS Ascent GX10, Beelink GTR9 Pro (Ryzen AI Max+ 395, 128 GB), Framework Desktop (Ryzen AI Max+ 395, 128 GB).
