Frequently Asked Questions
- How much VRAM does L3.3 MS Nevoria 70B need?
L3.3 MS Nevoria 70B 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 MS Nevoria 70B?
No — L3.3 MS Nevoria 70B 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 MS Nevoria 70B on a Mac?
L3.3 MS Nevoria 70B 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 MS Nevoria 70B locally?
Yes — L3.3 MS Nevoria 70B 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 MS Nevoria 70B?
At BF16, L3.3 MS Nevoria 70B 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)
AMD Instinct MI300X~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 MS Nevoria 70B?
At BF16, the download is about 141.11 GB.
- Which GPUs can run L3.3 MS Nevoria 70B?
No single consumer GPU has enough VRAM to run L3.3 MS Nevoria 70B at BF16 (142.1 GB). Multi-GPU or professional hardware is required.
- Which devices can run L3.3 MS Nevoria 70B?
4 devices with unified memory can run L3.3 MS Nevoria 70B at BF16 (142.1 GB), including Mac Pro M2 Ultra (192 GB), Mac Studio M2 Ultra (192 GB), NVIDIA DGX A100 640GB, NVIDIA DGX H100. Apple Silicon Macs use unified memory shared between CPU and GPU, making them well-suited for local LLM inference.
