Can the AMD Radeon Pro W7900 48GB run Llama 3.2 3B?

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

Llama 3.2 3B on the AMD Radeon Pro W7900 48GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 553k 84.8-103.6 t/s ~3.9-4.8 (slow)
Q8 yes 602k 169.6-207.3 t/s ~7.9-9.6 (slow)
Q4 yes 624k 302.8-370.1 t/s ~14-17.1 (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.

Can the AMD Radeon Pro W7900 48GB run Llama 3.2 3B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~302.8-370.1 tok/s and fits up to 624k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~14-17.1 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 624k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
