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 Mistral Small v24.09?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~28.6-35.5 tok/s and fits up to 60k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~1.9-2.3 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 60k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
