GLM 5.2 504B — 290B params (0xSero).
GLM 5.2 504B needs more memory than any of our consumer hardware presets — running it locally means multi-GPU or workstation territory, so the API price is the honest baseline here.
Local is never $0 — every figure here includes electricity and hardware amortization. Speeds come from published 7-8B Q4 benchmarks (your model, quant, and context will differ); break-even volumes are rounded to 2 significant figures.
| Parameters | 290B |
|---|---|
| Context window | 1M tokens |
| Recommended quant | Q4_K_M |
| VRAM requirement | ~227 GB (at Q4_K_M, 16.4K context) |
| Download size | ~174 GB |
| License | Commercial use OK |

Three paths: $0 marginal compute on already-owned hardware if the calculated 227 GB VRAM baseline at Q4_K_M fits your exact build and runner (electricity and allocated hardware excluded); a rented GPU from $2.94/hr (6× NVIDIA RTX A6000 48GB at the direct RunPod price); or about $2.42 per 1M blended tokens via your own API key (a rough estimate for this size). Spanvero adds $0 markup on every path.
Only with serious hardware: at Q4_K_M, GLM 5.2 504B needs about 227 GB of VRAM/unified memory — more than any consumer GPU or Mac we track — so local means multi-GPU workstation territory. Most people use a rented GPU or their own API key instead.
No single consumer GPU we track holds GLM 5.2 504B — it needs about 227 GB at Q4_K_M. That is multi-GPU, cluster, or API territory.
