No. Even at Q4_K_M, GLM-5.3 needs about 457.8 GB, but the NVIDIA RTX 4060 has 8 GB usable. You could offload some layers to system RAM, but it will be very slow.

Frequently asked questions
Can NVIDIA RTX 4060 run GLM-5.3?
No. Even at Q4_K_M, GLM-5.3 needs about 457.8 GB, but the NVIDIA RTX 4060 has 8 GB usable. You could offload some layers to system RAM, but it will be very slow.
How much VRAM does GLM-5.3 need?
About 457.8 GB at Q4_K_M with 8,192 tokens of context, and about 1507.3 GB at full FP16 precision.
How fast is GLM-5.3 on the NVIDIA RTX 4060?
It does not fit in the NVIDIA RTX 4060's memory, so most layers would run from system RAM and generation would be very slow.
