Yes — with 1.3 GB to spare

Fara 7B at Q4_K_M fits your GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop entirely on the GPU at 8K context, at an estimated 33 tokens per second. Past 31K the KV cache pushes it over — quantise the cache to q8_0, or step down a quantisation, to go longer.

Fully on GPU 8K context Q4_K_M · 4.7 GB MIT Released 24 Nov 2025 Vision Not in the Ollama library

A web computer-use agent on a Qwen2.5-VL base — it clicks, fills forms and stops for permission. Not a chat model; size it like an 8B with vision.

Quality is the published perplexity delta against f16 weights. Max context assumes an f16 KV cache; q8_0 roughly doubles it.
