Can RX 7600 XT 16GB run gemma-4-26B-A4B-it?

AMD · 16 GB GDDR6 · 288 GB/s bandwidth · Google · 25.2B (active 3.8B) · MoE · model ctx up to 256K

No — gemma-4-26B-A4B-it at Q4 needs ≈ 15.24 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: ≈ 144.6 tok/s (estimated, batch 1). FP16 needs ≈ 52.16 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	15.24 GB	No	151.9 est.
Q4	8K default	15.62 GB	No	144.6 est.
Q4	32K	17.9 GB	No	110.1 est.
FP16	4K	51.78 GB	No	3.6 est.
FP16	8K default	52.16 GB	No	3.6 est.
FP16	32K	54.44 GB	No	3.3 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).
