Can the Intel Arc Pro B50 run Granite 3.0 2B?

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

Granite 3.0 2B on the Intel Arc Pro B50

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 125k 26-32.3 t/s ~4.6-5.8 (slow)
Q8 yes 164k 52-64.5 t/s ~9.3-11.5 (slow)
Q4 yes 180k 92.8-115.2 t/s ~16.6-20.6 (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 Granite 3.0 2B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~92.8-115.2 tok/s and fits up to 180k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~16.6-20.6 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 180k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
