What requires RAM offload?
Offload is shown only when the model does not fully fit in usable VRAM but stays within the modeled offload allowance.
Performance
Separate from memory fit. Runtime is llama.cpp · quantization bucket Q4 (GGUF Q4_0 maps to Q4). Workload is llama-bench pp512 / tg128 (short context, batch 1, full GPU offload). This is not a ranking and not a 8K–128K speed claim.
