Can MI300X 192GB run Qwen3-1.7B?

AMD · 192 GB HBM3 · 5300 GB/s bandwidth · Alibaba · 2.0B · model ctx up to 40K

Yes — the MI300X 192GB (192 GB HBM3) can run Qwen3-1.7B. At Q4 with the default 8K context it needs ≈ 2.5 GB VRAM (weights 1.1 GB + KV cache 0.4 GB + 1 GB runtime overhead), which fits within 192 GB. Decode at Q4/8K: ≈ 1686.4 tok/s (estimated, batch 1). FP16 (≈ 5.4 GB) also fits, at ≈ 463.7 tok/s (estimated). Estimates come from memory-bandwidth math; rows tagged measured override estimates. Relative ranking is more reliable than absolute tok/s. Methodology.

Fit & speed by quant and context

Quant	Context	VRAM needed	Fits?	tok/s (decode)
Q4	4K	2.3 GB	Yes	1686.4 est.
Q4	8K default	2.5 GB	Yes	1686.4 est.
Q4	32K	3.7 GB	Yes	1686.4 est.
FP16	4K	5.2 GB	Yes	463.7 est.
FP16	8K default	5.4 GB	Yes	463.7 est.
FP16	32K	6.6 GB	Yes	463.7 est.

Fits = weights + KV(ctx) + 1 GB overhead ≤ 95% of VRAM. Measured anchors are context-agnostic; the fit verdict is recomputed per context. A missing tok/s means the model is far beyond this card (offload-only territory).
