Can the FuriosaAI RNGD run Granite 3.1 8B?

Yes โ€” here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.

Granite 3.1 8B on the FuriosaAI RNGD

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 202k 60.2-73.1 t/s ~1.6-2 (slow)
Q8 yes 264k 120.4-146.3 t/s ~3.2-3.9 (slow)
Q4 yes 291k 214.9-261.2 t/s ~5.7-7 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.

FAQ

Can the FuriosaAI RNGD run Granite 3.1 8B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~214.9-261.2 tok/s and fits up to 291k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~5.7-7 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 291k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
