Can the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT run StableLM-2-1.6B?

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

StableLM-2-1.6B on the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 152k 123.4-150.8 t/s ~7.7-9.4 (slow)
Q8 yes 177k 246.7-301.6 t/s ~15.3-18.7 (slow)
Q4 yes 188k 440.6-538.5 t/s ~27.4-33.4 (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 RX 9070 XT run StableLM-2-1.6B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~440.6-538.5 tok/s and fits up to 188k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~27.4-33.4 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 188k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
