Can Titan Xp 12GB run gemma-4-26B-A4B-it?

NVIDIA · 12 GB GDDR5X · 548 GB/s bandwidth · Google · 25.2B (active 3.8B) · MoE · model ctx up to 256K

No — gemma-4-26B-A4B-it at Q4 needs ≈ 15.24 GB even at 4K context, beyond the Titan Xp 12GB's 12 GB GDDR5X. It would only run with heavy CPU/disk offload. Decode at Q4/8K: ≈ 154.1 tok/s (estimated, batch 1). FP16 needs ≈ 52.16 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. Methodology.

Fit & speed by quant and context

Quant	Context	VRAM needed	Fits?	tok/s (decode)
Q4	4K	15.24 GB	No	161.9 ± est.
Q4	8K default	15.62 GB	No	154.1 ± est.
Q4	32K	17.9 GB	No	117.3 ± est.
FP16	4K	51.78 GB	No	—
FP16	8K default	52.16 GB	No	—
FP16	32K	54.44 GB	No	—

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).
