which F SKU is needed?

I have overall 

  • Total 300 columns in workspaces
  • Max semantic model size will be 3 GB just one SM)
  • Rest of them will be under 1 GB
  • I will not use Incremental refresh
  • No dataflows, warehouse, and etc
  • Just 10-20 semantic models and
  • 30-40 reports.

Currently, i m not fabric or premium capacity user. My SM size will hit 1GB, and it is in the Pro workspace. I have report users with Pro license as well.
How many F SKU i need? I used Fabric Capacity Estimator. But i need a clear source to read about it as well. Ur opinions also are valueble for me.

Thanks in Advance.

    Zarina_Hajiyeva How many users? You may not need an F SKU at all, you may just need a PPU license. The only thing I see in your list that cannot be handled with just Power BI Pro is the 3GB semantic model. For that you will need PPU or an F SKU. I need to take a look and see if F SKU's lower than F64 support semantic models larger than 1 GB. If they do, then you would just need an F2 or an F4 potentially depending on how many users you have.
