Evidence level
How this is assessed →Memory and hardware-fit values are planning estimates unless a tested report is linked.
Variants and Quant Artifacts
Choose the artifact first; hardware fit follows from RAM, VRAM, format, and runtime.
| Quant | Format | Quality | Min RAM | Reco RAM | Runtime | Action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | gguf | high | 4GB | 8GB | ollama, llama.cpp, lm-studio | Plan with this |
| Q8 | gguf | high | 4GB | 8GB | ollama, llama.cpp, lm-studio | Plan with this |

Sources and compatibility
Execution evidence
Run BGE-M3 Embedding with a documented recipe
Recipes connect hardware, a model artifact, tools, settings, verification, and a reportable result.
No verified recipe is linked to this record yet.
Compatibility estimates remain available in the planner. A recipe appears here only after its exact stack and verification protocol are documented.
