Frequently Asked Questions
- How much VRAM does Ornith 1.5 35B A3B REAP 50 NVFP4A16 need?
Ornith 1.5 35B A3B REAP 50 NVFP4A16 requires 37.5 GB of VRAM at BF16. Full 262K context adds up to 10.7 GB (48.1 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 18.5B × 16 bits ÷ 8 = 37.1 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 0.4 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 11 GB (at full 262K context)
