MiniCPM4 models
4 MiniCPM4 models on Hugging Face, from 434M to 8.2B parameters. At the precision each one is published in, the smallest needs about 1.0 GB of VRAM (MiniCPM4-0.5B, cheapest live fit: RTX 5060 Ti) and the largest about 18.3 GB (MiniCPM4-8B, cheapest live fit: RTX A5000). The cheapest way to run MiniCPM4-0.5B is $0.110/hr.

VRAM is for the precision the model is published in, with the same overhead and an 8,192-token context assumed on every page; see the methodology. The fit shown is the lowest-priced single GPU type that holds the model at that precision, or the lowest-priced multi-GPU set (up to 8) when none does.
