Intel Arc 140V (16GB)
The Intel Arc 140V (16GB) has 16 GB VRAM and 137 GB/s memory bandwidth. It can run 27 of our 94 tracked models natively in VRAM at 8k context.
With 16 GB LPDDR5X, the Intel Arc 140V (16GB) is a integrated-tier GPU that can run 27 models natively. It handles smaller models (7B–14B) at Q4–Q5 quantization.
Intel Arc 140V (16GB): 2024 Xe2-LPG Battlemage iGPU with 16GB unified LPDDR5X at 137 GB/s, standard Lunar Lake config.
7B at Q8 or 13B at Q4 in unified memory. ~3-5 t/s for 7B via Vulkan; bandwidth-constrained.
Vulkan via llama.cpp works; shares on-package memory with CPU. SYCL backend available with oneAPI. Ollama support limited.

Frequently asked questions
- How much VRAM does the Intel Arc 140V (16GB) have?
- The Intel Arc 140V (16GB) has 16 GB of LPDDR5X with 137 GB/s memory bandwidth (unified system memory, shared between CPU and GPU).
- What is the Intel Arc 140V (16GB) best for?
- With 16 GB of VRAM, the Intel Arc 140V (16GB) handles smaller models (7B–14B) at Q4–Q5 quantization, ideal for entry-level local LLM experimentation and lightweight inference.
- What LLMs can the Intel Arc 140V (16GB) run locally?
- The Intel Arc 140V (16GB) can run 27 of the 94 open-weight models tracked by CanItRun natively in VRAM at 8k context. Top options include: Ornith 1.5 9B at Q5_K_M, Qwen 3.5 9B at Q5_K_M, Bonsai 27B at 1-bit (Q1_0).
- Can the Intel Arc 140V (16GB) run Gemma 4 31B?
- The Intel Arc 140V (16GB) does not have enough VRAM to run Gemma 4 31B. You would need more VRAM or a lower quantization level.
- Can the Intel Arc 140V (16GB) run Qwen 3.6 27B?
- The Intel Arc 140V (16GB) does not have enough VRAM to run Qwen 3.6 27B. You would need more VRAM or a lower quantization level.
- Can the Intel Arc 140V (16GB) run Qwen3 8B?
- Yes. The Intel Arc 140V (16GB) runs Qwen3 8B natively in VRAM at Q5_K_M quantization, achieving approximately 12.9 tokens per second.
