Local AI performance

What the Radeon AI PRO R9700 can run on your own machine, and how fast.

Largest model it can run (8K context)

Q4 (the usual choice, near-original quality)
~44B
Q8 (closer to original, half the model size)
~26B
FP16 (unquantised, for training and research)
~14B

Parameter counts the card holds with room for an 8K conversation, counting the model weights plus its attention cache. A longer conversation needs more memory, so it lowers these figures.
