LLaMA-65B on the Instinct MI440X

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 810k 94.7-115.7 t/s ~0.2-0.2 (slow)
Q8 yes 1009k 189.4-231.5 t/s ~0.4-0.5 (slow)
Q4 yes 1097k 338.2-413.3 t/s ~0.7-0.8 (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.
