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 28.0 GB at BF16. 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)

Fit ratings and hardware model lists check this model with room for a 16K-token context, which needs a little more memory.

KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 13.7 GB (at full 16K context)

Can I run WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1 on a Mac?

Yes — Mac Mini M2 Pro (16 GB) and 133 other Macs can run WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1. Apple Silicon uses unified memory, so the model shares RAM with the system. At Q4_K_M you need at least 9.8 GB of usable unified memory (RAM minus macOS overhead).

Can I run WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1 locally?

Yes — WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1 can run locally on consumer hardware. Popular tools include Ollama, LM Studio, and llama.cpp.

How fast is WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1?

At Q4_K_M, WhiteRabbitNeo 13B V1 can reach ~491 tok/s on AMD Instinct MI350X. 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: NVIDIA B200 → 8000 ÷ 9.78 × 0.65 = ~532 tok/s
