Yes. Gemma 3n E2B (on-device) fits in fast memory on RTX 3080 12GB at Q8_0 (7.8 GB needed, 11.5 GB usable), about 79 tok/s (estimate).
Hardware: RTX 3080 12GB · Model: Gemma 3n E2B (on-device)
RTX 3080 12GB has 12 GB of VRAM and 912 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 11.5 GB. Partial offload may also use 60% of that system RAM. Gemma 3n E2B (on-device) (5.4B, Google) at Q8_0 is a 6.9 GB download and needs 7.8 GB with headroom for about 8k tokens.
