LLM Memory Calculator
This will estimate if a local LLM fits in your GPU VRAM and system RAM
Enter the model, memory and runtime details to check whether it fits:

Warnings :
All sizes are estimates: weights use effective GGUF bits-per-weight averages, the KV cache covers only the full attention layers, the compute buffer is a runtime-dependent heuristic, and batch size scales the compute buffer only. Hybrid attention models additionally hold a small fixed state per linear attention layer that is not modeled. Gb values are interpreted as binary GiB (1024^3 bytes).
