Can the AMD Instinct MI325X run Qwen2.5-14B?

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

Qwen2.5-14B on the AMD Instinct MI325X

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1249k 128.6-157.1 t/s ~0.9-1 (slow)
Q8 yes 1339k 257.1-314.3 t/s ~1.7-2.1 (slow)
Q4 yes 1378k 459.2-561.2 t/s ~3.1-3.7 (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.

Can the AMD Instinct MI325X run Qwen2.5-14B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~459.2-561.2 tok/s and fits up to 1378k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~3.1-3.7 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 1378k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
