Can the Intel Arc Pro B70 run Minitron 4B?

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

Minitron 4B on the Intel Arc Pro B70

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 298k 42-52.1 t/s ~2.8-3.4 (slow)
Q8 yes 362k 84-104.2 t/s ~5.5-6.9 (slow)
Q4 yes 390k 149.9-186.1 t/s ~9.9-12.2 (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 B70 run Minitron 4B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~149.9-186.1 tok/s and fits up to 390k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~9.9-12.2 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 390k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
