Solar Open 69B REAP i1 needs ~54.5 GB VRAM. MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB has 46.1 GB. With NVFP4 quantization, expect ~8 tok/s.
Operating mode
Interactive favors responsiveness, while light API and scale-out lean harder on serving readiness. The fit stays the same, but the recommendation lens changes.

Offload
20%
It fits through host-memory offload, and offload is the main reason performance drops.
CPU or host-memory offload is active
About 20% of the working set spills out of accelerator memory, which usually hurts latency and sustained decode throughput.
Very little memory headroom
You can run the model, but there is not much room left for longer context, bigger batches, extra apps, or future model updates.
Shared-memory contention still exists
The OS, browser, and inference runtime all compete for the same physical memory pool, so real-world headroom is less forgiving than raw capacity suggests.
Remove offload with more accelerator memory
Prioritize a GPU or unified-memory tier that fits the whole model natively. Removing offload usually helps more than small compute gains.
Buy headroom, not only minimum fit
A slightly larger memory tier gives you safer context growth and makes the recommendation more future-proof.
Increase host RAM if you keep offloading
This setup may need roughly 6.0 GB of extra host RAM just for the offloaded portion, before OS and other tools.

Yes, MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB can run Solar Open 69B REAP i1 at NVFP4 quantization (Very compromised (needs ~6 GB host RAM)). The recommended Q4_K_M requires 58.0 GB which exceeds available memory, but at NVFP4 it needs only 54.5 GB. Expected decode speed: 8.0 tok/s.
Solar Open 69B REAP i1 (69B parameters) requires approximately 58.0 GB at Q4_K_M quantization. On MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB, it fits at NVFP4 using 54.5 GB.
The recommended quantization is Q4_K_M, but on MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB the best fitting quantization is NVFP4, which uses 54.5 GB.
On MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB, Solar Open 69B REAP i1 achieves approximately 8.0 tokens per second decode speed with a time-to-first-token of 24300ms using NVFP4 quantization.
For coding workloads, Solar Open 69B REAP i1 on MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB receives a F grade with 6.5 tok/s and 4K context.
On MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB, Solar Open 69B REAP i1 can safely use up to 4K tokens of context at NVFP4 quantization. The model's official context limit is —, but available memory constrains the safe maximum.

Not always. MacBook Pro M4 Pro 64GB can often fit larger models thanks to unified memory, but a discrete GPU with dedicated high-bandwidth VRAM may still decode faster once the model fits. For this combination, the important distinction is capacity versus sustained throughput.
