QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1731k 711.1-864.3 t/s ~27.8-33.8 (slow)
Q8 yes 1733k 1422.2-1728.5 t/s ~55.6-67.5 (slow)
Q4 yes 1734k 2539.7-3086.7 t/s ~99.2-120.6 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.

FAQ

Can the GMKtec EVO-X3 run GPT-1?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~2539.7-3086.7 tok/s and fits up to 1734k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~99.2-120.6 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 1734k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
