decision summary with stated limitations
Practical notes
The professional lane is about VRAM, support expectations, and workstation budgets.
Not a normal starter recommendation, but important as an upper bound reference.

Planning lane
48GB VRAM 32B–70B planning lane
A 48GB professional GPU can justify evaluating 32B–70B class work, but long context and runtime overhead may narrow that range.
Planning band: 40–48 GB. It is not a measured requirement.
Memory boundary
48GB VRAM is a planning boundary, shared with the platform or runtime where applicable; it is not a measured compatibility guarantee.
Uncertainty to keep visible
Official device facts support this planning lane, but do not measure runtime allocation, throughput, model quality, or long-context fit.
