## Runs On

What it takes to serve gemma-4-31B-it-uncensored-heretic-exl3-4.50bpw-h8 (10.6B parameters): the memory its weights need at each precision, and the cheapest way to rent enough data-center GPUs to hold them.

| Precision | Weights | Memory needed | Cheapest setup | Per hour | Also fits |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 16-bit | 21.2 GB | 25.4 GB | 1x [MI300X](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/mi300x) (192 GB) Vultr | $1.85 | [1x H100](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/h100) $1.99 · [1x MI325X](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/mi325x) $2.00 |

Memory is the weights at that precision plus 20% for the runtime and a short context; a long context needs more. Prices are the lowest on-demand hourly rates in the [SAVRN Index](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus), read Oct 9, 2026.

## Model Card

By Sleepyj, published under apache-2.0, revision 593a63f3f4f5.

This is an EXL3 build of [llmfan46/gemma-4-31B-it-uncensored-heretic](https://huggingface.co/llmfan46/gemma-4-31B-it-uncensored-heretic) for ExLlamaV3 and TabbyAPI. The vision tower is quantized to 6 bits. It loads only with ExLlamaV3 or TabbyAPI's exllamav3 loader, not with Transformers, vLLM or llama.cpp.

This is not the coder3101 heretic. That 4.00bpw quant is [sjoe1244/gemma-4-31B-it-heretic-exl3-4.00bpw-h6](https://huggingface.co/sjoe1244/gemma-4-31B-it-heretic-exl3-4.00bpw-h6).

On a 24 GB RTX 4090 this quant tops out at about 67K prompt with an 8-bit KV cache, or about 118K with a 4-bit KV cache. It does not fit 139,264 context at all. If you need 128K+ on one 24 GB card, use the [4.15bpw-h6](https://huggingface.co/sjoe1244/gemma-4-31B-it-uncensored-heretic-exl3-4.15bpw-h6) or [4.00bpw-h6](https://huggingface.co/sjoe1244/gemma-4-31B-it-uncensored-heretic-exl3-4.00bpw-h6) quant instead. See RTX 4090 (24 GB) limits below for the measured numbers.

### Quantization
