What Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 (16GB) can run
At 16 GB of VRAM, Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 (16GB) runs 75 of 149 tracked local models, 50% coverage that earns a B. The largest it handles is gpt-oss 20B at 21B parameters; anything bigger needs more memory or a lower quantization.
Only the 16 GB of VRAM drives speed: a model that spills into system RAM slows sharply. Keep the weights plus KV cache under VRAM and prefer Q4_K_M to leave headroom.
