Llama 3.3 70B on an RTX 4090 has its own written guide: Can I run Llama 3.3 70B on an RTX 4090?

Speeds and memory are our estimate from the hardware specs, not a measured test. Every answer is for the standard quality (Q4) and a conversation of about 12 pages of text (8,192 tokens). Prices excl. shipping unless marked. Euro prices incl. VAT where the seller charges it. Dollar prices are converted from our euro prices without the 21% EU VAT, before US sales tax. How we calculate

Questions

How does localLLMrig calculate whether an LLM fits on my GPU or Mac?
Every compatibility check on https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run adds three numbers for a 4-bit (Q4) model and an 8,192-token conversation (about 12 pages of text): (1) the model file size (a measured GGUF or MLX file where one is listed, or our formula estimate), (2) the conversation memory at 8,192 tokens (our estimate, using grouped-query attention and a sliding window where the model config records them), and (3) 0.80 GB of runtime working space (our estimate). A model is marked runs well when that total fits inside the machine's usable graphics memory.
How much usable VRAM does a 12 GB, 16 GB, 24 GB, 32 GB, or 48 GB GPU actually have?
Our calculator reserves 0.6 GB per graphics card for the operating system and display driver (our estimate), leaving 11.4 GB on a 12 GB card, 15.4 GB on a 16 GB card, 23.4 GB on a 24 GB card, 31.4 GB on a 32 GB card, and 46.8 GB across a two-card 48 GB setup (Dual RTX 3090, 128 GB RAM). On Apple Silicon, macOS shares unified memory with the system. The share in this catalog is 2/3 up to 32 GB and 75% above that: 10.7 GB on 16 GB (2/3), 21.3 GB on 32 GB (2/3); 48.0 GB on 64 GB (75%), 72.0 GB on 96 GB (75%), 96.0 GB on 128 GB (75%), 192.0 GB on 256 GB (75%).
How many open-weight models fit on a 24 GB GPU like the RTX 3090 or RTX 4090?
As of 24 Oct 2026, 25 of the 42 AI models we track on https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run run well at standard 4-bit quality (Q4, 8,192 tokens) inside the 23.4 GB usable memory of a 24 GB card, including Qwen3 32B (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/qwen3-32b, 22.7 GB est.), Qwen3.6-35B-A3B (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/qwen3.6-35b-a3b, 23.1 GB est.), Gemma 4 31B (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/gemma-4-31b, 20.6 GB est.), NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Lightning (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/nemotron-3.5-lightning, 19.8 GB est.), Gemma 4 26B A4B (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/gemma-4-26b-a4b, 18.1 GB est.), Qwen3.8-27B (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/qwen3.8-27b, 17.8 GB est.). In addition, Recursive Flint (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/flint) needs 24.5 GB at its standard file (1.1 GB over a 24 GB card) and fits that card at UD-Q3_K_XL (18.49 GB measured GGUF, 19.6 GB total estimate).
Can I test these open models live in my browser before downloading 17 to 96 GB of weights?
Yes. On https://localllmrig.com/, you can test 10 open-weight models (26B to 280B parameters) side by side in your browser for free with no account, including Gemma 4 31B (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/gemma-4-31b), Gemma 4 26B A4B (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/gemma-4-26b-a4b), NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Lightning (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/nemotron-3.5-lightning), Laguna S 2.1 (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/laguna-s-2.1), NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Super VL (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/nemotron-3.5-super-vl), Recursive Flint (https://localllmrig.com/can-i-run/flint). Each of those model pages also includes an inline browser test.
Are the tokens-per-second (tok/s) speeds and hardware prices measured?
Speeds (tok/s) and total memory figures in the compatibility tables are our estimates from hardware and model specifications, not measured llama-bench runs. Hardware prices cite the dated source stored on each machine. Used sold-listing medians in this catalog: GeForce RTX 3060 12GB at €261 (pcprice.watch); GeForce RTX 3090 24GB at €1,246 (pcprice.watch); GeForce RTX 4090 24GB at €2,185 (pcprice.watch). Other source names on the hardware list include pcprice.watch, GPU PRIX, PriceSquirrel, Belgian Apple Store, ASUS eStore Belgium, NVIDIA, idealo.de, Framework (Germany), GEEKOM (Germany), Minisforum EU store, Beelink EU store, Intel. A machine with no checked listing is marked price unverified.
