Which apps can open a model depends on the files published for it: GGUF for llama.cpp-based apps, MLX for Apple’s engine, the original weights for vLLM and SGLang. Compare every app.

Memory needed

Peak GPU memory at the native output size. Offloading moves the text encoder, or the whole pipeline, to system RAM between steps.
