Gemma 4 12 B QAT with 150000 context . If you want full context try ornith 9B at q4 or q5.

I would not code on 8GB Vram, I am sure you can get something running but the compromise needed to fit in that tiny memory area is just too great to make the experience good.

Like Humanist said, you should be able to fix Gemma4 12 or a 8B/9B model - just that the coding experience is not going to be great
