FAQ

Can the AMD RX 7900 XTX run QwQ 32B?

Yes. The AMD RX 7900 XTX's 24.0GB of VRAM is enough to run QwQ 32B at Q5_K_M quantization (23.7GB required).

What's the best quantization to use?

Q5_K_M is the highest-precision quantization that fits in your 24.0GB. It uses about 23.7GB of memory and 25.2GB 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.
