Yes. SmolLM2 360M fits in fast memory on RTX 3060 8GB at FP16 (1.3 GB needed, 7.5 GB usable), about 197 tok/s (estimate).
Hardware: RTX 3060 8GB · Model: SmolLM2 360M
RTX 3060 8GB has 8 GB of VRAM and 240 GB/s of memory bandwidth. The checker holds back 0.5 GB of VRAM for the driver and assumes 16 GB of system RAM, so fast memory usable by Ollama is 7.5 GB. Partial offload may also use 60% of that system RAM. SmolLM2 360M (0.362B, HuggingFace) at FP16 is a 0.73 GB download and needs 1.3 GB with headroom for about 8k tokens.
