Gemma 4 31B is a 31.27B-parameter model. At Q4_K_M it needs about 19.1 GB of memory. The NVIDIA RTX 5090 32GB has 30 GB usable, so it fits entirely in memory. Expect about 39 tokens/sec (14–65), with the first token after 0.3 s for a short prompt. This estimate is interpolated from benchmarks of similar setups.
| Quantization | File size | Memory | Generation | First token | Source |
