Can the Intel Arc Pro B60 run Minitron 8B?

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

Minitron 8B on the Intel Arc Pro B60

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 30k 15.9-19.8 t/s ~1.4-1.7 (slow)
Q8 yes 94k 31.9-39.6 t/s ~2.8-3.5 (slow)
Q4 yes 122k 56.9-70.6 t/s ~5-6.2 (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 B60 run Minitron 8B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~56.9-70.6 tok/s and fits up to 122k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~5-6.2 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 122k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
