Can RX 7600 XT 16GB run Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B-Instruct?

AMD · 16 GB GDDR6 · 288 GB/s bandwidth · Alibaba · 81.3B (active 3B) · MoE · model ctx up to 256K

No — Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B-Instruct at Q4 needs ≈ 46.02 GB even at 4K context, beyond the RX 7600 XT 16GB's 16 GB GDDR6. It would only run with heavy CPU/disk offload. Decode at Q4/8K: ≈ 20.8 tok/s (estimated, batch 1). FP16 needs ≈ 164.2 GB — does not fit on this card. 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	46.02 GB	No	21.1 est.
Q4	8K default	46.32 GB	No	20.8 est.
Q4	32K	48.12 GB	No	19.3 est.
FP16	4K	163.9 GB	No	—
FP16	8K default	164.2 GB	No	—
FP16	32K	166.0 GB	No	—

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).
