Can the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 run Pythia-160m?

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

Pythia-160m on the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1730k 504-616 t/s ~19.7-24.1 (slow)
Q8 yes 1732k 1008-1232 t/s ~39.4-48.1 (slow)
Q4 yes 1734k 1800-2200 t/s ~70.3-85.9 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.

FAQ

Can the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 run Pythia-160m?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~1800-2200 tok/s and fits up to 1734k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~70.3-85.9 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 1734k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
