Hardware: RTX 4080 16GB · Model: Qwen3.8 27B
RTX 4080 16GB has 16 GB of VRAM and 717 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 15.5 GB. Partial offload may also use 60% of that system RAM. Qwen3.8 27B (27B, Alibaba) at Default is a 18 GB download and needs 20.3 GB with headroom for about 8k tokens.
