Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
StableLM-2-1.6B on the Instinct MI440X
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 5991k | 3754.5-4588.9 t/s | ~7.7-9.4 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 6016k | 7509-9177.7 t/s | ~15.3-18.7 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 6028k | 13409-16388.8 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.
