Can the Intel Arc A770 16GB run GLA Transformer 1.3B?

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

GLA Transformer 1.3B on the Intel Arc A770 16GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 162k 124.9-155.1 t/s ~8.9-11.1 (slow)
Q8 yes 182k 249.8-310.2 t/s ~17.8-22.2 (slow)
Q4 yes 191k 446.2-553.8 t/s ~31.9-39.6 (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 Intel Arc A770 16GB run GLA Transformer 1.3B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~446.2-553.8 tok/s and fits up to 191k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~31.9-39.6 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 191k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
