gemma-4-E4B Guide: VRAM Requirements, GGUF Builds, Model Files
Everything Local Model Watch has published about the gemma-4-E4B family: 1 article(s) covering the base model and its fine-tunes, plus converted builds we tracked after publication. Memory requirements below are computed by this site from file sizes, not quoted from model cards. Part of our model family index.

Hardware Requirements
Estimated requirements (calculated by Local Model Watch) — 8.0B parameters
| Your VRAM | Quantization | File size | Est. memory needed |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8GB (RTX 4060 / 3060 Ti, etc.) | Q4_K_M | 4.9GB | 5.9GB |
Memory estimates add a 20% runtime overhead (KV cache, etc.) to the actual size of the distributed files. Actual usage varies with context length, batch size and inference engine. These figures are computed by this site from file sizes, not published by the model’s authors. Compare with other models in our VRAM quick reference. What the quantization names mean: glossary.
Figures are for google/DiarizationLM-Gemma-4-E4B-v1, the most recent model in this family with a hardware estimate.
Can You Run It Locally?
Runs in Ollama, LM Studio and llama.cpp as-is.
It is distributed in GGUF, so no conversion is needed.
License — apache-2.0 (Commercial use allowed): Permits commercial use, modification and redistribution. Redistribution requires including the license and stating changes; includes a patent grant.
Compression: the Q4_K_M build measures 5.26 bits per weight — about 33% the size of the original 16-bit weights, calculated by this site from the actual file sizes.
Compiled by this site’s code from the published formats, converted builds we have found, and each engine’s own model registry. “Not found" means we have not seen such a build, not that none exists. License summaries are not legal advice — check the publisher’s original terms before relying on them.
