No — Kimi-K2-Instruct-0905 at Q4 needs ≈ 568.78 GB even at 4K context, beyond the RTX 4060 8GB's 8 GB GDDR6. It would only run with heavy CPU/disk offload. FP16 needs ≈ 2060.4 GB — does not fit on this card. Estimates come from memory-bandwidth math; rows tagged measured override estimates. Relative ranking is more reliable than absolute tok/s.

Fits = weights + KV(ctx) + 1 GB overhead ≤ 95% of VRAM. Measured
anchors are context-agnostic; the fit verdict is recomputed per context. A missing tok/s
means the model is far beyond this card (offload-only territory).
