Can RX 7900 XT 20GB run Ornith-1.0-9B?

AMD · 20 GB GDDR6 · 800 GB/s bandwidth · DeepReinforce · 9.0B · model ctx up to 256K

Yes — the RX 7900 XT 20GB (20 GB GDDR6) can run Ornith-1.0-9B. At Q4 with the default 8K context it needs ≈ 7.75 GB VRAM (weights 4.95 GB + KV cache 1.8 GB + 1 GB runtime overhead), which fits within 20 GB. Decode at Q4/8K: ≈ 56.6 tok/s (estimated, batch 1). FP16 needs ≈ 20.8 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	6.85 GB	Yes	56.6 est.
Q4	8K default	7.75 GB	Yes	56.6 est.
Q4	32K	13.15 GB	Yes	56.6 est.
FP16	4K	19.9 GB	No	44.9 est.
FP16	8K default	20.8 GB	No	41.1 est.
FP16	32K	26.2 GB	No	25.9 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).
