AA coding index 17.4 (Artificial Analysis, frozen since 2026-09-11)

An 80B-total MoE (~3B active) with a hybrid-attention backbone built for very long context at low active-compute cost.

Sizes on disk

Real GGUF file sizes = weight VRAM. Add the KV cache for your context (≈3 GB at 32K, fp16). Read from the GGUF header, but this architecture has never been checked against llama.cpp — treat it as an estimate.

Config tips

~50 GB at Q4 — fits an 80 GB card with lots of room for its long context. The hybrid attention keeps the KV cache smaller than a dense 80B would.
