Understanding LLM VRAM Requirements
How much VRAM you need depends on the model size and quantization level. Quantization reduces the precision of model weights, trading small quality losses for significantly lower VRAM usage. For example, a 7B parameter model needs ~14 GB at FP16 but only ~4 GB at Q4_K_M quantization.

Moonlight 16B A3B
Moonshot AI · 16.0B · runs from 7.5 GB
Moonlight 16B A3B is a compact Mixture-of-Experts model from Moonshot AI that packs 16 billion total parameters while activating only around 3 billion per token. This efficient sparse design lets it punch well above its active parameter count, delivering surprisingly strong chat performance for its effective inference cost. The small active parameter count means Moonlight runs briskly on modest hardware, fitting comfortably on GPUs with 8–12 GB of VRAM at common quantization levels. It is an appealing choice for users who want MoE-level performance diversity without the heavy memory footprint typically associated with mixture models.

Falcon 7B Instruct
TII UAE · 7.2B · runs from 3.4 GB
Falcon 7B Instruct is the instruction-tuned version of TII's Falcon 7B, fine-tuned on a mix of chat and instruction datasets to follow user prompts more reliably. It was among the early open models to show that a well-tuned 7B model could handle conversational tasks, summarization, and basic reasoning without requiring massive hardware. While newer models have since raised the bar, Falcon 7B Instruct remains a lightweight option for users who want a responsive local assistant with modest resource requirements.
