What coding model should I check for an 8 GB GPU?

For this task and memory budget, Hugging Bay’s find-runnable pick is unsloth/Qwen2.5-Coder-3B-Instruct-GGUF (1.93 GB · Qwen2.5-Coder-3B-Instruct-Q4_K_M.gguf · Q4_K_M · SHA-256 32f00144…8c57c5b4). Memory fit is an estimate from recorded file size, not a runtime test on your machine.

Quick answer: compatibility and sources

What coding model should I check for an 8 GB GPU?

It depends on your task, available memory, file format and license. The records below match this guide’s filters. Check the linked file evidence before choosing: a catalog match does not prove runtime support, safety or answer quality.

An answer pack is a question-specific filter over catalog records. It is not a benchmark, safety review or guarantee that a model will run.

As of .

The machine-readable answer record and its citation list link to the source data behind this guide. Catalog matches are not a benchmark or model test.

Key facts

Answer pack
Filters catalog rows for one reader question; order is not a quality ranking.
Citation API
Machine-readable citations link each row to source endpoints.
Hosting line
Describes delivery status separately from license permission.
Unmeasured runs
No row implies a successful model test unless run evidence says so.

Evidence you can inspect (plain text)

  • GET /api/answers indexes public answer packs.
  • GET /api/answers/coding-model-8gb-gpu exposes machine-readable rows when the slug exists.
  • Open /artifact/hf-model-qwen-qwen3-8b/files for exact filenames, availability and any recorded SHA-256 for the model.
  • Open /evidence/artifacts/hf-model-qwen-qwen3-8b for run-readiness evidence tied to that record; absent receipts stay unmeasured.
  • Open /api/artifacts/hf-model-qwen-qwen3-8b/card.md for machine-readable source facts (not a runtime test).
  • Guides do not assert model tests unless linked run evidence includes a receipt.

Unmeasured states are stated explicitly; this page does not invent run scores or compatibility guarantees.

Which date applies to which fact

  • Answer API rows assembled:
  • Committed page-copy sources:
  • Upstream model metadata: Dates on artifact records when shown; not implied by page-copy revision
  • Run receipts: Only on /evidence pages when recorded; otherwise unmeasured

Page-copy revision (Updated line above) identifies committed text sources, not upstream model edits or test outcomes.
