Can the AMD Instinct MI455X run Palmyra Large 20B?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Palmyra Large 20B on the AMD Instinct MI455X
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 1358k | 308.7-377.3 t/s | ~0.6-0.8 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 1434k | 617.4-754.6 t/s | ~1.3-1.5 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 1468k | 1102.5-1347.5 t/s | ~2.3-2.8 (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.
