Frequently Asked Questions
- How much VRAM does L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3 need?
L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3 requires 142.1 GB of VRAM at BF16. Full 131K context adds up to 42.3 GB (184.4 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 70.6B × 16 bits ÷ 8 = 141.1 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 1 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 43.3 GB (at full 131K context)
VRAM usage by quantization
BF16142.1 GBBF16 + full context184.4 GB- Can NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 run L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3?
No — L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3 requires at least 142.1 GB at BF16, which exceeds the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090's 32 GB of VRAM.
- Can I run L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3 on a Mac?
L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3 requires at least 142.1 GB at BF16, 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 L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3 locally?
Yes — L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3 can run locally on consumer hardware. At BF16 quantization it needs 142.1 GB of VRAM. Popular tools include Ollama, LM Studio, and llama.cpp.
- How fast is L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3?
At BF16, L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3 can reach ~21 tok/s on AMD Instinct MI300X. Speed depends mainly on GPU memory bandwidth. Real-world results typically within ±20%.
tok/s = (bandwidth GB/s ÷ model GB) × efficiency
Example: AMD Instinct MI300X → 5300 ÷ 142.1 × 0.55 = ~21 tok/s
Estimated speed at BF16 (142.1 GB)
~21 tok/sReal-world results typically within ±20%. Speed depends on batch size, quantization kernel, and software stack.
- What's the download size of L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3?
At BF16, the download is about 141.11 GB.
- Which GPUs can run L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3?
No single consumer GPU has enough VRAM to run L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3 at BF16 (142.1 GB). Multi-GPU or professional hardware is required.
- Which devices can run L3.3 70B Euryale V2.3?
