How much VRAM does the Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB have?

The Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB has 24 GB of GDDR6 with 456 GB/s memory bandwidth.

What is the Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB best for?

With 24 GB of VRAM, the Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB is well-suited for running 7B–32B models at Q4 with room for context, making it a great all-rounder for local LLM inference.

What LLMs can the Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB run locally?

The Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB can run 42 of the 70 open-weight models tracked by CanItRun natively in VRAM at 8k context. Top options include: Llama 3.1 8B Instruct at BF16, Llama 3.2 3B Instruct at FP32, Llama 3.2 1B Instruct at FP32.

Can the Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB run Llama 3.3 70B Instruct?

The Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB can run Llama 3.3 70B Instruct with CPU offload at Q4_K_M quantization, but inference will be slower than native VRAM execution.

Can the Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB run Qwen 3.6 27B?

Yes. The Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB runs Qwen 3.6 27B natively in VRAM at Q5_K_M quantization, achieving approximately 26.2 tokens per second.

Can the Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB run Llama 3.1 8B Instruct?

Yes. The Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB runs Llama 3.1 8B Instruct natively in VRAM at BF16 quantization, achieving approximately 28.5 tokens per second.

Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB

The Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB has 24 GB VRAM and 456 GB/s memory bandwidth. It can run 42 of our 70 tracked models natively in VRAM at 8k context.

The Intel Arc Pro B70 is Intel's flagship Battlemage workstation GPU with 24GB of GDDR6 and ECC support, announced at CES 2025. It targets CAD, media, and AI inference workloads with ISV certifications. The 24GB framebuffer fits 13B models at Q8 or 30B models at aggressive quantization, with the Vulkan backend providing usable LLM inference speeds on Linux and Windows.

Intel Arc Pro B70 24GB: 2025 Xe2-HPG Battlemage workstation GPU with 24GB ECC GDDR6 — Intel's pro flagship.

13B at Q8 or 30B at Q4 natively. ~8-12 t/s for 7B via Vulkan.

Vulkan via llama.cpp works cross-platform. SYCL backend available with oneAPI. ISV-certified workstation card.
