Frequently asked
Quick answers to common questions
How much VRAM does Hy3 need?
Hy3 with 298.8B parameters needs approximately 173 GB at Q4_K_M quantization. Use our VRAM calculator for an exact estimate.
Is Hy3 better than other tencent models?
Hy3 has 298.8B parameters with 262,144 context - a strong choice for general use.
What license is Hy3 under?
Hy3 is released under the other license, making it suitable for most commercial and personal projects.
What hardware runs Hy3 well?
With 298.8B parameters, Hy3 requires adequate VRAM. High-end GPUs like the RTX 4090 (24GB), RTX 5090 (32GB), or Mac Studio with unified memory are good options. Check our hardware directory for specific recommendations.
What is the best quantization for Hy3?
Q4_K_M is the recommended sweet spot - ~98% of FP16 quality at ~27% of the size. Q5_K_M (~212 GB) is an option if you have spare VRAM. Use our VRAM calculator to compare.
How long can Hy3's context window handle?
Hy3 supports a 262,144-token context window - enough for very long documents, codebases, or multi-turn conversations. Real-world usable context may vary by implementation.
What models compete with Hy3?
