This model fits, but memory bandwidth is the part holding decode speed back.
Throughput will feel slow
Estimated decode speed is only 2.0 tok/s, so this is more of a technical fit than a comfortable daily-driver setup.
Prioritize bandwidth, not only capacity
If this workload feels slow, the next useful step is often a GPU tier with materially faster memory bandwidth rather than only a small bump in capacity.

Inference speed
Estimated decode speed (tokens/sec) for granite embedding 107m multilingual at Q4_K_M across popular GPUs and Apple Silicon, using the fastest local runtime per device. Fastest is RTX 5090 32GB at ~2 tok/s. Speed is memory-bandwidth bound, so cards that fit the whole model in VRAM run far faster than ones that offload to system RAM.

Yes, RTX 4060 Ti 16GB can run granite embedding 107m multilingual with a D grade (Runs well). Expected decode speed: 2.0 tok/s.
granite embedding 107m multilingual (0.10700000077486038B parameters) requires approximately 3.0 GB of memory with Q4_K_M quantization.
The recommended quantization for granite embedding 107m multilingual is Q4_K_M, which balances quality and memory efficiency.
On RTX 4060 Ti 16GB, granite embedding 107m multilingual achieves approximately 2.0 tokens per second decode speed with a time-to-first-token of 96800ms using Q4_K_M quantization.
For coding workloads, granite embedding 107m multilingual on RTX 4060 Ti 16GB receives a D grade with 2.0 tok/s and 2.1M context.
On RTX 4060 Ti 16GB, granite embedding 107m multilingual can safely use up to 2.1M tokens of context. The model's official context limit is —, but available memory constrains the safe maximum.
Prioritize bandwidth, not only capacity. If this workload feels slow, the next useful step is often a GPU tier with materially faster memory bandwidth rather than only a small bump in capacity.
