Can the AMD Instinct MI325X run Kimi Linear?

Yes โ€” here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.

Kimi Linear on the AMD Instinct MI325X

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 421k 39.4-48.1 t/s ~0.3-0.3 (slow)
Q8 yes 568k 78.8-96.3 t/s ~0.5-0.6 (slow)
Q4 yes 632k 140.6-171.9 t/s ~0.9-1.1 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.

FAQ

Can the AMD Instinct MI325X run Kimi Linear?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~140.6-171.9 tok/s and fits up to 632k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~0.9-1.1 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 632k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
