Can the Intel Arc Pro B70 run SenseNova U1?

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

SenseNova U1 on the Intel Arc Pro B70

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 91k 22-27.4 t/s ~1.5-1.8 (slow)
Q8 yes 152k 44.1-54.7 t/s ~2.9-3.6 (slow)
Q4 yes 179k 78.7-97.7 t/s ~5.2-6.4 (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 SenseNova U1?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~78.7-97.7 tok/s and fits up to 179k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~5.2-6.4 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 179k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
