Which is faster on RTX 3080: gemma3-4b or mistral-24b?
This RTX 3080 comparison shows VRAM fit and quality data for gemma3-4b vs mistral-24b, but one or both decode-speed benchmarks are still missing.
Do both models fit on RTX 3080?
gemma3-4b: ✓. mistral-24b: ✗ No. The fit labels use Q4_K_M VRAM estimates and the benchmark data available for this GPU.
How much VRAM do these models need?
gemma3-4b needs about 3GB in Q4_K_M; mistral-24b needs about 14.4GB in Q4_K_M.
Why can speed differ by GPU?
Local LLM speed depends on GPU memory bandwidth, backend, quantization, context length, and whether the model fits entirely in VRAM or unified memory.
How can I correct this comparison?
