Can I run Gemma 2 27B on AMD Ryzen AI Halo (128GB)?
Yes. Gemma 2 27B runs on AMD Ryzen AI Halo (128GB) at Q4_K_M (~18.7 GB of ~96 GB usable).
Runs at Q4_K_M using ~18.7 GB of ~96 GB usable. You have room for FP16 for higher quality.
That figure is at a 4k context and moves about ±15% as context length changes. AMD Ryzen AI Halo (128GB) leaves ~77.3 GB of headroom, room to step up to FP16 for higher quality.

Running cost · estimate
- Power draw
- ~120 W
- Electricity / 1M tokens
- ~$0.5
At ~$0.15/kWh and the estimated ~10 tok/s, a million generated tokens costs about $0.5 in electricity. TDP is the peak draw, so this is an upper bound. Assumptions.
