Can the Intel Arc Pro B50 run Codestral Mamba?

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

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 Codestral Mamba?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~31.8-39.5 tok/s and fits up to 70k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~5.7-7.1 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 70k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
