Your installed memory clears this model’s catalog minimum. Available memory and conversation length still affect whether it can load and keep running.
Memory
16 GB installed · 6 GB catalog minimum
The minimum is Loci’s catalog guide for this GGUF variant. It is not the model’s peak memory use or a guarantee that a long conversation will fit.

No verified speed available
A speed estimate needs verified measurements for this device and model. Memory capacity alone cannot predict it.
Short text chats need less conversation memory than long documents. The model, app, operating system and other open apps still need room.
The direct Mac app requires Apple silicon and macOS 26.2 or later.
Smaller downloads to compare
A little context
Memory is only part of the answer.
Storage and RAM do different jobs
The model download takes storage. Running it also needs working memory for the model, conversation and app. A small file is not a promise of a small working set.
Check the exact variant
A model’s quantization and runtime can change its requirements. The file sizes and memory floors here refer to the listed Mac GGUF variants. Phone variants can differ.
Speed needs measurements
Processor, software, power mode and temperature all affect speed. Unverified or missing results stay unknown.
