Frequently asked

Quick answers

Can the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB run NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Nano 4B?

Yes. NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Nano 4B fits the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB's 16 GB at Q4_K_M (about 3.8 GB needed), running at an estimated 92 tok/s. There's room for up to FP16 if you want higher quality.

How much VRAM does NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Nano 4B need?

About 2 GB of weights at Q4_K_M, 4 GB at Q8_0 and 8 GB at FP16. Add roughly 1.8 GB for the KV cache and runtime at modest context lengths.

How fast is NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Nano 4B on the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB?

Roughly 92 tokens per second at Q4_K_M (single user, llama.cpp-style decode). This is an estimate from the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB's 322.3 GB/s memory bandwidth.
