Hybrid Mamba-2/Transformer: 88 blocks (40 mamba, 40 moe, 8 attention). The KV formula uses only those 8 attention blocks. It does not model the Mamba SSM state or the vision mmproj (+0.97–1.73 GB). 120B total and 12B active are the card's round billions, so paramsEstimated stays true. Local on Ollama as nemotron-3.5-super (default tag 80–90 GB). Speed is not estimated: the formula streams every weight and understates sparse MoE.
