Can the Instinct MI430X run XGen-7B?
Yes โ here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
XGen-7B on the Instinct MI430X
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 2919k | 1095.4-1338.9 t/s | ~1.9-2.3 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 2970k | 2190.9-2677.8 t/s | ~3.8-4.6 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 2992k | 3912.3-4781.7 t/s | ~6.7-8.2 (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.
