Vicuna 7B needs ~14.2 GB VRAM. RX 6750 XT 12GB has 12.0 GB. With Q4_K_M quantization, expect ~28 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.
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 0.7 GB of extra host RAM just for the offloaded portion, before OS and other tools.

Yes, RX 6750 XT 12GB can run Vicuna 7B with a D grade (Very compromised (needs ~0.7 GB host RAM)). Expected decode speed: 28.3 tok/s.
Vicuna 7B (7B parameters) requires approximately 14.2 GB of memory with Q4_K_M quantization.
The recommended quantization for Vicuna 7B is Q4_K_M, which balances quality and memory efficiency.
On RX 6750 XT 12GB, Vicuna 7B achieves approximately 28.3 tokens per second decode speed with a time-to-first-token of 6843ms using Q4_K_M quantization.
For coding workloads, Vicuna 7B on RX 6750 XT 12GB receives a D grade with 28.3 tok/s and 4K context.
On RX 6750 XT 12GB, Vicuna 7B can safely use up to 4K tokens of context. The model's official context limit is 4K, but available memory constrains the safe maximum.
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.
