Frequently Asked Questions
- How much VRAM does WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1 need?
WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1 requires 9.8 GB of VRAM at Q4_K_M, or 15.0 GB at Q8_0. Full 16K context adds up to 11.7 GB (21.5 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 13B × 4.8 bits ÷ 8 = 7.8 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 2 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 13.7 GB (at full 16K context)
VRAM usage by quantization
Q4_K_M9.8 GBQ4_K_M + full context21.5 GB- What's the best quantization for WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1?
For WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1, Q4_K_M (9.8 GB) offers the best balance of quality and VRAM usage. Q5_K_S (10.9 GB) provides better quality if you have the VRAM. The smallest option is Q2_K at 7.5 GB.

- Can I run WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1 on a Mac?
WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1 requires at least 7.5 GB at Q2_K, 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 WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1 locally?
Yes — WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1 can run locally on consumer hardware. At Q4_K_M quantization it needs 9.8 GB of VRAM. Popular tools include Ollama, LM Studio, and llama.cpp.
- How fast is WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1?
At Q4_K_M, WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1 can reach ~298 tok/s on AMD Instinct MI300X. On NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090: ~67 tok/s. 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 ÷ 9.8 × 0.55 = ~298 tok/s
Estimated speed at Q4_K_M (9.8 GB)
~298 tok/s~67 tok/s~223 tok/s~184 tok/sReal-world results typically within ±20%. Speed depends on batch size, quantization kernel, and software stack.
- What's the download size of WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1?
At Q4_K_M, the download is about 7.80 GB. The full-precision Q8_0 version is 13.00 GB. The smallest option (Q2_K) is 5.53 GB.
