Can the Intel Arc A380 run Phi-4 Reasoning Vision 15B?

69Good quality (B) · 69 of 100: how capable the model is at Q6_K, whatever it runs on. Match score 55/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.

Yes, but slowly (heavy RAM offload)

Slow (heavy RAM offload). At Q6_K it needs about 15.0 GB of 6.0 GB usable, with an estimated speed of 4.4 tok/s.

Best app to run it on the Intel Arc A380

On Windows

Docker Model Runner

Command line + local API · runs on llama.cpp, vLLM

  • Splits the model between GPU memory and system RAM, which this setup needs.
  • Handy if you already work in Docker.
docker model run hf.co/microsoft/Phi-4-reasoning-vision-15B

On Linux

  • Handy if you already work in Docker.
docker model run hf.co/microsoft/Phi-4-reasoning-vision-15B

How we choose: the files published for this model, your operating system and GPU, whether it fits fully in memory, and published speed tests (MLX vs llama.cpp on Apple silicon, vLLM vs llama.cpp vs Ollama on NVIDIA). Details.

How it’s rated

Quality 69Good quality (B) · 69 of 100: how capable the model is at Q6_K, whatever it runs on. Match score 55/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.
How capable the model itself is at Q6_K, from its editorial quality tier scaled by the quantization or precision. It’s the same on any hardware that runs this variant. Scale: A+ 85+ · A 70+ · B 55+ · C 40+ · D under 40.
Runs Slowheavy RAM offload
How well it runs on the Intel Arc A380: speed, capped by how well it fits in memory. Runs great: 30+ tokens/s (or near the image, video or decision speed target) · Runs well: 10+ tokens/s · Slow: 3+ tokens/s · Very slow: under 3 · Won’t run: doesn’t fit even with offload. A tight fit or RAM offload caps it at Runs well; heavy offload caps it at Slow.

Match score

To order lists, each result also gets a match score out of 100 from four parts. It favors the most capable model that still runs well.

Model qualityEditorial quality tier of the model, scaled by the quantization or precision used.31.2 / 45
Memory fitFull marks when everything sits in GPU memory; fewer when part spills to system RAM.4.0 / 25
SpeedGeneration speed against a 40 tokens/s target for LLMs, or render time against a target for image and video.5.0 / 15
Memory useRewards using the memory you have, so a bigger, better variant beats a tiny one that leaves most memory idle.15.0 / 15
Match score55.2 / 100

The match score orders results; it is not shown as a grade. Quality and Runs are the two ratings in the tables.

Memory figures assume 8K of context. Longer conversations or documents grow the KV cache.

Other hardware that runs it

Estimates come from published hardware specs and our open formulas, not from running the model on your machine. Real speed varies with runtime, drivers and settings. Numbers marked “Measured” come from a linked benchmark.
