FAQ

Can the NVIDIA RTX 3090 Ti run Qwen 3.5 4B?

Yes. The NVIDIA RTX 3090 Ti's 24.0GB of VRAM is enough to run Qwen 3.5 4B at f32 quantization (19.8GB required).

What's the best quantization to use?

f32 is the highest-precision quantization that fits in your 24.0GB. It uses about 19.8GB of memory and 21.3GB recommended for comfortable inference.

What if I need more headroom for context length?

KV cache memory grows with context length. The numbers above assume a baseline 2K-4K context. For long-context use (32K+), add another 2-6GB depending on the model architecture.
