Can I run Apple OpenELM 1.1B on Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 (24GB)?
Yes. Apple OpenELM 1.1B runs on Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 (24GB) at Q4_K_M (~1.7 GB of ~23 GB usable).
Runs at Q4_K_M using ~1.7 GB of ~23 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. Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 (24GB) leaves ~21.3 GB of headroom, room to step up to FP16 for higher quality.

Running cost · estimate

- Electricity / 1M tokens

- Pays for itself after
- ~3,331M tok
At ~$0.15/kWh and the estimated ~1040 tok/s, a million generated tokens costs about $0.02 in electricity. Versus a hosted API at ~$0.5 per million tokens, the ~$1,599 Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 (24GB) pays for itself after roughly 3,331 million tokens, so local hardware is mostly a fixed cost, not a per-token one. TDP is the peak draw, so this is an upper bound. Assumptions.

FAQ
Can Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 (24GB) run Apple OpenELM 1.1B?
Yes. Apple OpenELM 1.1B runs on Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 (24GB) at Q4_K_M (~1.7 GB of ~23 GB usable).
How much memory does Apple OpenELM 1.1B need?
Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 (24GB) has room to spare. At Q4_K_M the weights are ~0.63 GB; with KV cache and runtime overhead, budget ~1.7 GB at a 4k context.
What is the best tool to run Apple OpenELM 1.1B 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.

Weights are measured from GGUF files; KV cache and overhead are computed, so totals can vary ~15% with context and runtime. Any tok/s is a bandwidth estimate. See methodology.
