Common questions

Can the RX 7900 XTX run it?

Can the RX 7900 XTX run Qwen3 30B-A3B?

Yes. Qwen3 30B-A3B needs about 21 GB and the RX 7900 XTX has 24 GB of VRAM. Expect about 170 tok/s, faster than you can read.

Can the RX 7900 XTX run Qwen3 32B?

Yes. Qwen3 32B needs about 22 GB and the RX 7900 XTX has 24 GB of VRAM. Expect about 26 tok/s, about reading speed.

Can the RX 7900 XTX run Llama 3.3 70B?

No. Llama 3.3 70B needs about 45 GB and the RX 7900 XTX has at most 24 GB of VRAM. Ollama can still start it by putting part of the model in system RAM, but it runs several times slower. The most capable model it runs well is Qwen3 32B, at about 26 tok/s.

How we estimate

Generating a token reads the model's active weights from memory once, so speed is roughly memory bandwidth (960 GB/s) divided by the active weight size, with efficiency calibrated on our own rack. Sizes are Ollama's default 4-bit downloads plus about 1.2 GB for context. Real results are usually within about a third. Measured one yourself? Send us the number.
