Can the Intel Arc B580 12GB run BFS-Prover?

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

BFS-Prover on the Intel Arc B580 12GB

Q8 yes 19k 37.8-46.9 t/s ~3.3-4.1 (slow)
Q4 yes 43k 67.5-83.8 t/s ~5.9-7.3 (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 B580 12GB run BFS-Prover?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~67.5-83.8 tok/s and fits up to 43k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~5.9-7.3 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 43k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
