A single 24GB GPU can now run a 35B scientific research agent that spawns sub-agents and checks its own evidence.
Sage-A1.5 is 35B / ~3B active, and its official Q4_K_M is just 21.7GB.
Here are the new Sage-A1.5 model stats
๐ง 35B MoE / ~3B active
๐พ official Q4_K_M โ 21.7GB
๐ฎ fits a single 24GB GPU at moderate context
๐ 256K native context
๐๏ธ multimodal
๐ Apache 2.0
And it's specifically trained as a long-horizon research agent.
So it is designed to
๐ use tools/search/code
๐ค spawn parallel sub-agents
โ inspect its own evidence
๐ change direction when research stalls
No separate critic model required for its verification mode.
These are the full-precision benchmark results

โ ๏ธ Those benchmark scores are from the BF16 checkpoint, not the Q4.
But the same model now has an official 21.7GB GGUF with llama.cpp / Ollama / LM Studio support.
