Can the Intel Arc Pro B50 run BEIT-3?

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

BEIT-3 on the Intel Arc Pro B50

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 144k 34.2-42.4 t/s ~6.1-7.6 (slow)
Q8 yes 173k 68.4-84.9 t/s ~12.2-15.2 (slow)
Q4 yes 185k 122.1-151.6 t/s ~21.8-27.1 (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 Pro B50 run BEIT-3?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~122.1-151.6 tok/s and fits up to 185k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~21.8-27.1 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 185k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
