What GPU do you need to run K2-Horizon-MoVA-36B-A4B?

A new Radeon RX 7900 XTX ($1,350). It is the cheapest priced graphics card that holds K2-Horizon-MoVA-36B-A4B (about 23.9 GB at Q4) with room for only about 3K tokens of context (5K with 8-bit KV cache), at about 178 tok/s estimate; that is the card price only, and it requires a separate compatible PC. 54 of the 157 GPUs and systems we track fit it.

37.44B parameters, 4B active (mixture-of-experts) (Hugging Face, accessed 2026-10-18). Q4_K_M GGUF: 22.37 GB (source). Architecture config (Hugging Face config.json): 48 attention layers × 8 KV heads × 128 head dim, so about 192 KB of FP16 KV cache per token of context (how we estimate context).

MBZUAI IFM. Card: 36B stored, 4B per token, 512K native context, Mixture-of-Values attention (MoVA). Stock llama.cpp support merged Oct 6 (PR #29535). MoVA routes the value projection through experts; the context estimate assumes llama.cpp caches K and V like standard GQA (not checked against llama.cpp memory logs). Release date is the Hugging Face repo creation date.

Speed calculator

estimate

Estimate = bandwidth ÷ GB read per token (the model's listed GGUF file: Q4_K_M for most models, otherwise the quant named in the list; scaled by active/total parameters for MoE), scaled by a per-platform efficiency and fixed per-token costs calibrated to 45 measured llama.cpp benchmarks (2025–26). Fit = file size + 1.5 GB headroom ≤ total VRAM (on Macs, the part of unified memory macOS lets the GPU use by default), and room for at least 4K tokens of context with an 8-bit KV cache. For a model with no KV cache data, only the file and headroom are checked, so a fit says nothing about context. Multi-GPU: VRAM adds, speed stays one card's (a layer split runs the cards in turn); max context uses the total. Speed is for short context. Max context = what is left after the file and a 1 GB runtime reserve ÷ KV cache bytes per token, default FP16 and 8-bit (q8_0) cache. How speed works · how context works
