Which local LLMs fit in 12 GB?

12 GB holds models up to about 14B at Q4 with a usable context window; above that band the weights spill to system RAM and system-RAM bandwidth sets the speed, not the GPU.

  • ✅ 7–9B models (Llama 3.1 8B, Qwen 3 8B) — fits at Q4
  • ✅ 12–14B models (Qwen 3 14B, Phi-4) — fits at Q4
  • ❌ 20–27B models (Gemma 3 27B, Mistral Small) — needs 20 GB+
  • ❌ 30–35B models (Qwen 3 32B, QwQ 32B) — needs 24 GB+
  • ❌ 70B models (Llama 3.3 70B, Qwen 2.5 72B) — needs 48 GB+

Across 15 community runs from 7 sources, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti generates a median 75.8 tok/s on 7–9B models at Q4 (per Hardware Corner).
