Fits By llama.cpp’s default load check, Mistral-Small-3.2-24B-Instruct-2506 fits on AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT at Q5_K_M with a context of 8,192 tokens. One card needs 18.6 GiB available for “Fits”.

At Q5_K_M, the longest context that fits is 8,448 tokens.

“Fits” means llama.cpp's default --fit load check would place all layers on the GPU: our estimate of llama.cpp's buffers, plus its error margin, plus llama.cpp's 1 GiB per-card reserve, is within the memory counted as available. It does not promise that peak memory while generating fits. How results are decided

Values updated Oct 19, 2026 · Calculator

Run profile: llama.cpp, ROCm back end on Linux (AMD discrete GPU), all layers on the GPU, Flash Attention on, micro-batch (-ub) 512, F16 KV cache, context (-c) as shown; “Fits” is judged with llama-server’s default 4 parallel sequences (-np auto, unified KV cache) and “Doesn’t fit” with 1 sequence; idle GPU with no other programs using its memory.

Memory counted as available for “Fits” (C_low): 18.63 GiB per card = 20 GiB nominal − 144 MiB (the largest gap between nominal and reported total measured on consumer and workstation GPUs in this profile, used because no public log reports this GPU’s own total) − 1,216 MiB (the largest start-up and runtime use seen in this profile’s public logs), rounded down to a multiple of 64 MiB.

These results assume the card’s default configuration. Settings that reduce usable memory (for example ECC, where the card supports it) are not covered.
