Understanding LLM VRAM Requirements
How much VRAM you need depends on the model size and quantization level. Quantization reduces the precision of model weights, trading small quality losses for significantly lower VRAM usage. For example, a 7B parameter model needs ~14 GB at FP16 but only ~4 GB at Q4_K_M quantization.
Model List
Qwen AgentWorld 35B A3B
Alibaba · 34.7B · runs from 9.9 GB
Qwen AgentWorld 35B A3B is Alibaba's 35-billion-parameter mixture-of-experts model, with about 3 billion parameters active per token (the A3B in its name). Unlike a typical chat model, it is a language world model: given an agent's action and history, it predicts what the environment does next, covering domains such as terminal, web, Android, and software engineering. Only the active experts run per token, so inference stays fast even though all the weights must fit in memory. At this size, local inference calls for quantization and a single high-end consumer GPU. The model supports a 262K token context window and is released under the Apache 2.0 license, allowing unrestricted commercial and research use. Published in June 2026, it is built on a Qwen3.5-35B-A3B base and is meant for simulating agents, not direct conversation.

At this size, local inference is practical on a single mainstream-to-high-end consumer GPU once quantized. The model supports a 262,144 token context window, enough for long documents or extended chat histories. It is released under the Apache 2.0 license, permitting unrestricted commercial and research use. Published in October 2025 alongside 2B and 32B siblings, Qwen3-VL adds video understanding with fine-grained event indexing beyond earlier Qwen vision-language releases.
Ornith 1.0 35B
Deep Reinforce · 35.1B · runs from 10.0 GB
Ornith 1.0 35B, from Deep Reinforce, is a 35-billion-parameter model built on a mixture-of-experts architecture, meaning only a subset of its parameters activate for any given token even though the full model must be held in memory. Because the full expert set still needs to fit in memory much like a dense model of the same size, local use is best suited to a single high-end consumer GPU once quantized rather than lower-end hardware. It is tuned for general chat and instruction-following. The model provides a 256K token context window for handling long inputs, and is released under the MIT license, one of the more permissive options in this catalogue.

Qwen3 Next 80B A3B Thinking
Alibaba · 81.3B · runs from 22.8 GB
Qwen3 Next 80B A3B Thinking is Alibaba's 81-billion-parameter mixture-of-experts model, with about 3 billion parameters active per token (the A3B in its name), drawn from 512 experts with only 10 routed at a time. Because only the active experts run per token, inference is far cheaper than a dense model this size, though the full weight set still needs to fit in memory. It combines mostly-linear Gated DeltaNet attention with periodic full attention layers, and this Thinking variant always reasons through a visible chain of thought before answering. Running it locally needs multiple GPUs or a large unified-memory machine. It supports a 262K token context window, is released under the Apache 2.0 license, and was published in September 2025 as part of the Qwen3-Next line introducing this hybrid-attention architecture.
