Computed with the open FitLLM engine — accurate per-layer KV-cache modeling, not a naive estimate. Updated 2026-09-06.
FitLLM compares fit — what loads in memory — computed from official config.json. These are a floor, not a guarantee; speed and power are not estimated.

For local LLMs, more VRAM means more models and longer context. Match the card to the model you actually want to run — see the per-model fit pages.
All numbers are computed by the open-source fitllm-engine (MIT) from official model config.json values — reproduce or audit them yourself. Estimates; real usage varies with runtime (llama.cpp / MLX / Ollama), driver and display. Found a mismatch? Report it. · FitLLM home
