I may need to lower it a bit more, yeah. Though when I try to to use offloading, I can see that vram usage doesn't increase at all.
When I leave the setting at its default 100 value on the other hand, I see vram usage climb until it stops because there isn't enough of it.
So I guess not all models support offloading?
Most formats don't support it. It has to be gguf format, afaik. You can usually find a conversion on huggingface. Prefer offerings by TheBloke for the detailed documentation, if nothing else.
