Best app to run it on the Intel Core Ultra 200V (Arc 140V) (32 GB)

On Windows

vLLM

Inference server · runs on vLLM

Serves the scoring head directly (rerank, classify or reward) with batching.
On Windows it runs through WSL2.

vllm serve zeroentropy/zerank-1-small-reranker

Sentence Transformers Can only use the CPU on this hardware, so it will be slow.

On Linux

How it’s rated

Quality 80Great quality (A) · 80 of 100: how capable the model is at Q8_0, whatever it runs on. Match score 85/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.: How capable the model itself is at Q8_0, 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 Runs well: How well it runs on the Intel Core Ultra 200V (Arc 140V) (32 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.	36.0 / 45
Memory fitFull marks when the model fits in the share of unified memory the GPU can use; fewer when it goes past that limit.	25.0 / 25
SpeedTime for one decision against a 100 ms target: reading the input plus any tokens the model writes.	9.9 / 15
ClarityHow easy the answer is to use in code: a probability or score earns the most, written feedback before a score the least.	15.0 / 15
Match score	85.9 / 100

The match score orders results; it is not shown as a grade. Quality and Runs are the two ratings in the tables.
