Can the Intel Arc A580 run UI-Mate 27B?

83Great quality (A) · 83 of 100: how capable the model is at Q5_K_M, whatever it runs on. Match score 60/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.

Yes, but slowly (heavy RAM offload)

Slow (heavy RAM offload). At Q5_K_M it needs about 21.0 GB of 8.0 GB usable, with an estimated speed of 3.4 tok/s.

Best app to run it on the Intel Arc A580

On Windows

llama.cpp

Command line + local API · runs on llama.cpp

  • Splits the model between GPU memory and system RAM, which this setup needs.
  • Gives you direct control of how many layers sit on the GPU, the best way to squeeze a model that doesn’t quite fit.
  • Supports Intel Arc through SYCL and Vulkan.
llama-server -hf bartowski/tencent_UI-Mate-27B-GGUF:Q5_K_M
  • LM Studio Splits the model between GPU memory and system RAM, which this setup needs.
  • Jan Splits the model between GPU memory and system RAM, which this setup needs.

Want an agent? UI-Mate 27B supports tool use, so you can pair a llama.cpp or MLX LM server with one of these. Apps that run on this computer come first.

How it’s rated

Quality 83Great quality (A) · 83 of 100: how capable the model is at Q5_K_M, whatever it runs on. Match score 60/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.
How capable the model itself is at Q5_K_M, 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 A580: 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.37.5 / 45

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.
