Can the Intel Arc Pro B50 run Typhoon 2.1 Gemma 12B?

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 Typhoon 2.1 Gemma 12B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~19.3-24 tok/s and fits up to 40k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~3.5-4.3 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 40k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
