Why the edge:
- Reach, MiniCPM-V 4.7 35B-A3B +30: GLM-5.3-Flash 60 (Memory earns nothing, since Z.ai's smallest build is the 328.4 GB FP8 one, about 394 GB with the fifth added, and neither Ollama nor LM Studio has a local build…); MiniCPM-V 4.7 35B-A3B 90 (Memory 25, since OpenBMB's IQ4_XS GGUF with its vision projector is 19.6 GB and needs about 23.6 GB with the fifth added, which fits 24 GB, while its Q4_K_M GGU…)
- Documentation and upkeep, MiniCPM-V 4.7 35B-A3B +10: GLM-5.3-Flash 58 (The card covers architecture, parameters and languages and misses four of the seven items, for 8. Training data is 5, a 30T-token corpus described with no sourc…); MiniCPM-V 4.7 35B-A3B 68 (Model card 8, it covers intended use, architecture and parameters but not limitations, context length, languages or a knowledge cut-off.)
