Model catalog
Gemma 4 E4B IT
Google's instruction-tuned multimodal model has 8B total parameters and 4.5B effective parameters. Weight planning uses total parameters; the separate vision projector is excluded.
Model overview
Available quantizations
Lower-bit quantizations generally use less memory. The compatibility calculator uses these candidates and its transparent approximate memory assumptions; it does not make a performance guarantee.
Compatibility notes
Estimates use the cataloged model-weight size (or a parameter-based estimate), apply weight overhead, and include standard runtime overhead. They do not include context/KV-cache memory. Real requirements vary with runtime, drivers, and other system use. A model page cannot determine compatibility without your hardware profile; use the calculator for that assessment.
Google Gemma 4 E4B IT model card; verified value, last verified 2026-09-29. Google identifies 8B total and 4.5B effective parameters, Apache-2.0 licensing, and up to 128K context. The GGUF conversion has a separate vision-projector file, excluded from the listed main-weight size. View source
