Can I run Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1 on Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (16GB)?

Compatibility verdict VRAM threshold engine
No, not enough memory would not load

No. Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1 needs ~30.6 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (16GB) only has ~15 GB usable.

Needs ~30.6 GB Device usable ~15 GB

Needs ~30.6 GB even at Q4_K_M, but only ~15 GB is usable.

That figure is at a 4k context and moves about ±15% as context length changes.

The gap is about 15.6 GB: Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1 needs roughly 30.6 GB at Q4_K_M and Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (16GB) leaves only about 15 GB usable for a model. The lightest tracked hardware that runs Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1 is the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 (32GB) at 32 GB. See Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1 on Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 (32GB).

Too big for Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (16GB)'s VRAM, but you could offload some layers to system RAM and still run it at roughly ~2 tok/s, far slower than a model that fits. How this is estimated.

FAQ

Can Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (16GB) run Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1?

No. Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1 needs ~30.6 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (16GB) only has ~15 GB usable.

How much memory does Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1 need?

Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (16GB) does not have enough memory. At Q4_K_M the weights are ~28.14 GB; with KV cache and runtime overhead, budget ~30.6 GB at a 4k context.

What is the best tool to run Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1 on Windows?

LM Studio for a simple setup; Ollama (CUDA) for the most speed. AMD GPUs run via Vulkan/ROCm at roughly half CUDA throughput. NVIDIA is the smooth path on Windows.
