Can the AMD Instinct MI455X run Qwen-VL?

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

Qwen-VL on the AMD Instinct MI455X

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 2874k 643.1-786 t/s ~1.3-1.6 (slow)
Q8 yes 2948k 1286.3-1572.1 t/s ~2.6-3.2 (slow)
Q4 yes 2980k 2296.9-2807.3 t/s ~4.7-5.7 (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.

FAQ

Can the AMD Instinct MI455X run Qwen-VL?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~2296.9-2807.3 tok/s and fits up to 2980k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~4.7-5.7 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 2980k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
