— Enough memory, may be tightFrequently Asked Questions
- How much VRAM does MiMo V2.5 Pro Base need?
MiMo V2.5 Pro Base requires 614.5 GB of VRAM at Q4_K_M, or 2047.0 GB at BF16. Full 1049K context adds up to 112.5 GB (727.0 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 1023.2B × 4.8 bits ÷ 8 = 613.9 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 0.6 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 113.1 GB (at full 1049K context)
