— Plenty of headroomFrequently Asked Questions
- How much VRAM does Surjo 50M need?
Surjo 50M requires 0.4 GB of VRAM at BF16.
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 54M × 16 bits ÷ 8 = 0.1 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 0.3 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
VRAM usage by quantization
BF160.4 GB- Can I run Surjo 50M on a Mac?
Surjo 50M requires at least 0.4 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 Surjo 50M locally?
Yes — Surjo 50M can run locally on consumer hardware. At BF16 quantization it needs 0.4 GB of VRAM. Popular tools include Ollama, LM Studio, and llama.cpp.
- How fast is Surjo 50M?
At BF16, Surjo 50M can reach ~11163 tok/s on AMD Instinct MI350X. On NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090: ~1524 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 ÷ 0.4 × 0.65 = ~12093 tok/s
Estimated speed at BF16 (0.4 GB)
~12093 tok/s~1524 tok/s~12093 tok/s~11163 tok/sReal-world results typically within ±20%. Speed depends on batch size, quantization kernel, and software stack.
- What's the download size of Surjo 50M?
At BF16, the download is about 0.11 GB.
- Which GPUs can run Surjo 50M?
52 consumer GPUs can run Surjo 50M at BF16 (0.4 GB). Top options include AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT, AMD Radeon RX 6800, AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT. 52 GPUs have plenty of headroom for comfortable inference.
- Which devices can run Surjo 50M?
59 devices with unified memory can run Surjo 50M at BF16 (0.4 GB), including AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 (Strix Point) Laptop, ASUS Ascent GX10, Apple iPhone 17 Pro, Asus ROG Flow Z13 (2025, Ryzen AI Max+ 395, 128 GB). Apple Silicon Macs use unified memory shared between CPU and GPU, making them well-suited for local LLM inference.
