Can the Intel Arc Pro B50 run CLIP (ResNet-50)?

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

CLIP (ResNet-50) on the Intel Arc Pro B50

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 199k 733.2-910.2 t/s ~130.9-162.5 (slow)
Q8 yes 200k 1466.4-1820.3 t/s ~261.9-325.1 (slow)
Q4 yes 201k 2618.5-3250.6 t/s ~467.6-580.5 (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 CLIP (ResNet-50)?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~2618.5-3250.6 tok/s and fits up to 201k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~467.6-580.5 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 201k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
