Can the Instinct MI430X run Qwen3-32B?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Qwen3-32B on the Instinct MI430X
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 1260k | 223.8-273.5 t/s | ~0.4-0.5 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 1385k | 447.5-547 t/s | ~0.8-0.9 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 1440k | 799.2-976.8 t/s | ~1.4-1.7 (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.
