Yes — with 3.8 GB to spare
GLM-4.7-Flash 30B-A3B at Q4_K_M fits your RTX A5000 entirely on the GPU at 8K context, at an estimated 106 tokens per second. Past 82K the KV cache pushes it over — quantise the cache to q8_0, or step down a quantisation, to go longer.

Quality is the published perplexity delta against f16 weights. Max context assumes an f16 KV cache; q8_0 roughly doubles it. This model uses multi-head latent attention, so its cache is a compressed latent rather than full K and V.
How to run it
$ ollama pull glm-4.7-flash:latest $ OLLAMA_CONTEXT_LENGTH=8192 \ ollama run glm-4.7-flash:latest
The default. One binary, a model registry, an OpenAI-compatible port. More on Ollama.
01Download is 17.5 GB. Keep it on an SSD — a first load off a spinning disk takes minutes.
02Close anything else holding VRAM. A browser with hardware acceleration can sit on 1–2 GB.
03There is room to go to 82K context on this card.
