How we calculate

Memory = the weights file at a given quantisation (from the most popular GGUF repository on Hugging Face) + context memory + engine overhead. We pick the best quantisation that fits in GPU memory: Q8 is near-full quality, Q4 is good, below Q4 noticeably worse. When the model has to spill into RAM, we pick the lightest good one, because every gigabyte outside the GPU slows every answer. Speed is an estimate from memory bandwidth; in practice it depends on the app (Ollama, LM Studio, llama.cpp) and can differ by tens of percent.
