What runs Qwen3.5 122B-A10B
MoE with 122B total and 10B active parameters. Sized for 128 GB unified-memory machines and dual or quad GPU builds.
- Parameters
- 122B, 10B active
- 4-bit file
- 71.3 GB
- Q4_K_M
- Needs at 8k context
- 73.0 GB
- context memory estimated
- Longest context
- 262,144 tokens
Context memory: 24,576 bytes per token for the full-attention layers only. Hybrid: 12 of 48 layers are full attention (2 x 12 x 2 KV heads x 256 x 2 = 24,576 bytes/token); 36 Gated DeltaNet layers hold a fixed-size state. Card gives no per-token figure. How context memory works.
Measured on this hardware
Machines that hold the 4-bit file with 8,192 tokens of context and have published runs on the same chip or cards, fastest first. Median of single-user runs with plain decoding.

Estimated, not measured
These fit but nobody has published a run we could match. The figure is memory bandwidth divided by the bytes read per token, scaled by the share of that ceiling measured runs reach. How estimates work.
