WizardMath 7B needs ~12.3 GB VRAM. MacBook Pro M3 Max 48GB has 34.6 GB. With Q4_K_M quantization, expect ~60 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.

This setup is broadly balanced for this model.
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.

Yes, MacBook Pro M3 Max 48GB can run WizardMath 7B with a B grade (Runs well). Expected decode speed: 60.4 tok/s.
WizardMath 7B (7B parameters) requires approximately 12.3 GB of memory with Q4_K_M quantization.
The recommended quantization for WizardMath 7B is Q4_K_M, which balances quality and memory efficiency.
On MacBook Pro M3 Max 48GB, WizardMath 7B achieves approximately 60.4 tokens per second decode speed with a time-to-first-token of 3204ms using Q4_K_M quantization.
For coding workloads, WizardMath 7B on MacBook Pro M3 Max 48GB receives a B grade with 60.4 tok/s and 4K context.
On MacBook Pro M3 Max 48GB, WizardMath 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.
Not always. MacBook Pro M3 Max 48GB 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.
