Can the GMKtec EVO-X3 run Stable Cascade?
Yes โ here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Stable Cascade on the GMKtec EVO-X3
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 789k | 16.3-19.8 t/s | ~0.6-0.8 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 828k | 32.5-39.5 t/s | ~1.3-1.5 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 846k | 58-70.5 t/s | ~2.3-2.8 (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 Stable Cascade?โถ
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~58-70.5 tok/s and fits up to 846k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~2.3-2.8 tok/s.
How much context fits?โถ
At Q4, up to about 846k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
