How it’s rated

Quality 43Fair quality (C) · 43 of 100: how capable the model is at Q6_K, whatever it runs on. Match score 50/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.
How capable the model itself is at Q6_K, from its editorial quality tier scaled by the quantization or precision. It’s the same on any hardware that runs this variant. Scale: A+ 85+ · A 70+ · B 55+ · C 40+ · D under 40.
Runs Very slow
How well it runs on the Intel Atom C3538 / C3558 NAS (128 GB): speed, capped by how well it fits in memory. Runs great: 30+ tokens/s (or near the image, video or decision speed target) · Runs well: 10+ tokens/s · Slow: 3+ tokens/s · Very slow: under 3 · Won’t run: doesn’t fit even with offload. A tight fit or RAM offload caps it at Runs well; heavy offload caps it at Slow.

Match score

To order lists, each result also gets a match score out of 100 from four parts. It favors the most capable model that still runs well.

Quick answers

How much memory does InternVL2 8B need on the Intel Atom C3538 / C3558 NAS 128GB?

At Q6_K it needs about 17.3 GB. The Intel Atom C3538 / C3558 NAS 128GB has 113 GB usable.

How fast is InternVL2 8B on the Intel Atom C3538 / C3558 NAS 128GB?

About 0.8 tok/s at Q6_K, an estimate from the hardware’s memory bandwidth and the size of the model.

Which quantization of InternVL2 8B should I use on the Intel Atom C3538 / C3558 NAS 128GB?

Q6_K. Of the versions that fit, it is the one that runs best; when two run equally well, the check prefers the higher-rated one.

Estimates come from published hardware specs and our open formulas, not from running the model on your machine. Real speed varies with runtime, drivers and settings. Numbers marked “Measured” come from a linked benchmark.
