Compatibility verdict VRAM threshold engine

No, not enough memory would not load

No. Seed-OSS 36B Instruct needs ~22.5 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Google Pixel 10 Pro only has ~10.5 GB usable.

Needs ~22.5 GB Device usable ~10.5 GB

Needs ~22.5 GB even at Q4_K_M, but only ~10.5 GB is usable.

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

The gap is about 12 GB: Seed-OSS 36B Instruct needs roughly 22.5 GB at Q4_K_M and Google Pixel 10 Pro leaves only about 10.5 GB usable for a model. The lightest tracked hardware that runs Seed-OSS 36B Instruct is the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 (24GB) at 24 GB. See Seed-OSS 36B Instruct on Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 (24GB).
