Can the GMKtec EVO-X3 run GTE-ModernColBERT-v1?

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

GTE-ModernColBERT-v1 on the GMKtec EVO-X3

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1730k 558.4-678.7 t/s ~21.8-26.5 (slow)
Q8 yes 1733k 1116.8-1357.3 t/s ~43.6-53 (slow)
Q4 yes 1734k 1994.2-2423.8 t/s ~77.9-94.7 (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 GTE-ModernColBERT-v1?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~1994.2-2423.8 tok/s and fits up to 1734k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~77.9-94.7 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.
