Can the AMD Ryzen 3 1200 NAS (8 GB) run Prometheus 2 7B?

64Good quality (B) · 64 of 100: how capable the model is at Q4_K_M, whatever it runs on. Match score 48/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.

Barely: it runs very slowly (over memory limit)

Very slow (over memory limit). At Q4_K_M it needs about 5.7 GB of 5.2 GB usable and makes one decision in about 191.4 s.

Best app to run it on the AMD Ryzen 3 1200 NAS (8 GB)

On Linux

llama.cpp

Command line + local API · runs on llama.cpp

  • Splits the model between GPU memory and system RAM, which this setup needs.
  • Gives you direct control of how many layers sit on the GPU, the best way to squeeze a model that doesn’t quite fit.
  • Usually the first to support new model architectures.

  • Ollama Splits the model between GPU memory and system RAM, which this setup needs.
  • LocalAI One OpenAI-compatible server for GGUF guard models and rerankers together.

How we choose: the files published for this model, which apps run in a container on a NAS without a graphics card (models run on its processor), and whether the model fits fully in the memory models can use. Details.

How it’s rated

Quality 64Good quality (B) · 64 of 100: how capable the model is at Q4_K_M, whatever it runs on. Match score 48/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.
How capable the model itself is at Q4_K_M, 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 slowover memory limit
How well it runs on the AMD Ryzen 3 1200 NAS (8 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.

PrecisionEditorial precision tier from the model’s published benchmarks, scaled by the quantization or precision used.29.1 / 45
Memory fitFull marks when the model fits in the share of the NAS’s memory that models can use (the rest stays with the NAS system and its storage services); fewer when it goes past that limit.10.0 / 25
SpeedTime for one decision against a 100 ms target: reading the input plus any tokens the model writes.0.3 / 15
ClarityHow easy the answer is to use in code: a probability or score earns the most, written feedback before a score the least.9.0 / 15
