Can the Intel Arc A770 16GB run SGPT BE 5.8B?

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

SGPT BE 5.8B on the Intel Arc A770 16GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 12k 28-34.8 t/s ~2-2.5 (slow)
Q8 yes 57k 56-69.5 t/s ~4-5 (slow)
Q4 yes 76k 100-124.1 t/s ~7.1-8.9 (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 SGPT BE 5.8B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~100-124.1 tok/s and fits up to 76k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~7.1-8.9 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 76k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
