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.

Qwen3.5 2B Base

Alibaba · 2.3B · runs from 1.4 GB

Qwen3.5-2B-Base is a 2.3-billion-parameter dense checkpoint in Alibaba's Qwen3.5 base model family, a native vision-language foundation model rather than a text-only model with vision bolted on. It is pretrain-only: fine-tuning, in-context-learning, or further research, not direct conversation, though its control tokens are compatible with the official chat template for efficient LoRA-style adaptation. Its hybrid architecture pairs Gated DeltaNet linear attention with periodic gated full-attention layers. At 2.3B parameters, it runs comfortably on a single consumer GPU, even unquantized. The model supports a native 262,144 token context window, extensible up to 1,010,000 tokens. It is released under the Apache 2.0 license, and was published in February 2026. Qwen3.5 introduced early-fusion multimodal pretraining that Alibaba says outperforms the separate Qwen3-VL models on reasoning, coding, and visual understanding.

Qwen1.5 32B Chat

Alibaba · 32.5B · runs from 14.3 GB

Qwen1.5-32B-Chat is Alibaba's instruction-tuned, 32.5-billion-parameter chat model from the Qwen1.5 series, a beta release of the Qwen2 architecture that sits between the 14B and 72B dense models in the lineup. Qwen1.5 improved on the original Qwen with stable 32K context support across all model sizes, broader multilingual coverage, and no need for custom trust_remote_code, and this 32B checkpoint additionally uses grouped-query attention, unlike the smaller Qwen1.5 sizes, for faster inference. It was aligned on top of the pretrained base with supervised fine-tuning and direct preference optimization. At 32.5 billion parameters it needs a high-end consumer GPU, or a multi-GPU setup once quantized, to run comfortably. Context length is 32,768 tokens. It is released under Alibaba's Tongyi Qianwen license, a custom license that is free for most commercial and research use but requires a separate license from Alibaba once a deployment exceeds 100 million monthly active users. It was published in April 2024, part of Alibaba's second LLM generation, later followed by Qwen2 and Qwen2.5.

Qwen1.5 32B

Alibaba · 32.5B · runs from 14.3 GB

Qwen1.5-32B is Alibaba's 32.5-billion-parameter dense base language model, one of eight sizes (0.5B to 72B, plus a 14B mixture-of-experts variant) in the Qwen1.5 series, a beta preview of what became Qwen2. It is a raw pretrained Transformer with SwiGLU activation, QKV attention bias, and group-query attention (added specifically for the 32B and larger sizes), and Alibaba does not recommend using it directly for chat, only as a foundation for further fine-tuning or alignment. At 32.5B parameters it needs a high-end consumer GPU or multi-GPU setup once quantized, more at full precision. Context length is 32,768 tokens, stable across all Qwen1.5 model sizes. It is released under a custom Tongyi Qianwen Research License, free for research and academic use, with commercial deployment requiring a separate license from Alibaba. It was published in April 2024.

Qwen3.5 4B Base

Qwen3.5 9B Base

Alibaba · 9.7B · runs from 4.7 GB

Qwen3.5-9B-Base is the largest dense checkpoint in Alibaba's Qwen3.5 base family, at 9.7 billion parameters, a native vision-language foundation model trained with early fusion of image and text tokens. It is pretrain-only, meant for fine-tuning or research rather than direct interaction, though its control tokens are compatible with the official chat template for LoRA-style adaptation. It shares the family's hybrid design, alternating Gated DeltaNet linear attention with periodic gated full-attention layers, at a larger hidden size than its smaller siblings. At just under 10B parameters, it needs a single mainstream-to-high-end consumer GPU once quantized. Context length is a native 262,144 tokens, extensible up to 1,010,000 tokens. It is released under the Apache 2.0 license, and was published in February 2026. Above it sits only the 35B mixture-of-experts Qwen3.5-Base model, which activates roughly 3 billion parameters per token.

Qwen1.5 14B

Alibaba · 14.2B · runs from 8 GB

Qwen1.5-14B is Alibaba's base pretrained language model, not instruction-tuned, from the Qwen1.5 series that served as a beta preview of Qwen2.

Alibaba · 111.2B · runs from 46.9 GB

Qwen1.5-110B-Chat is Alibaba Cloud's 111-billion-parameter dense chat model and the largest member of the Qwen1.5 series, which the team describes as a beta version of Qwen2 spanning nine sizes from 0.5B up to this 110B model plus a 14B mixture-of-experts variant. Unlike most other Qwen1.5 sizes, the 110B model uses grouped-query attention, and it was post-trained with supervised fine-tuning and direct preference optimization for improved chat alignment. At 111 billion parameters it needs a multi-GPU workstation to run even when quantized. Context length is 32,768 tokens, one of Qwen1.5's standout features since every size in the family shares a stable 32K window. It is released under the Tongyi Qianwen License Agreement, Alibaba's custom license permitting research and commercial use. It was published in April 2024, a beta step between the original Qwen and Qwen2.

It supports a 128K token context window. Released under the Apache 2.0 license.

Qwen 72B

Alibaba · 72.3B · runs from 32.8 GB

Qwen-72B is Alibaba's 72-billion-parameter dense base language model from the original Qwen series, pretrained on over 3 trillion tokens of web text, books, and code. This is the pretrained base checkpoint, not a chat model; Alibaba released it for further fine-tuning and separately published Qwen-72B-Chat as the instruction-tuned counterpart. At this scale, local inference realistically needs a high-end multi-GPU workstation or heavy quantization onto a single very high-VRAM card. The model supports a 32,768 token context window. It is released under Alibaba's Tongyi Qianwen License Agreement, a custom license rather than a standard open-source one, and was published in November 2023. It uses an unusually large, roughly 150,000-token vocabulary for multilingual coverage, and predates and was superseded by the Qwen1.5 and later Qwen2/2.5 generations.

Qwen1.5 72B Chat

Alibaba · 72.3B · runs from 35.5 GB

Qwen1.5-72B-Chat is Alibaba's instruction-tuned, 72.3-billion-parameter flagship chat model from the Qwen1.5 series, a beta release of the Qwen2 architecture. Like the rest of the family, it offers stable 32K context length, broader multilingual support versus the original Qwen, and no need for custom trust_remote_code, and it was aligned on top of the pretrained base with supervised fine-tuning and direct preference optimization. As the largest dense model in the Qwen1.5 lineup, it was the series' primary competitor to other 70B-class open chat models at release. At 72.3 billion parameters, it needs a multi-GPU workstation or server to run, even once quantized. Context length is 32,768 tokens. It is released under Alibaba's Tongyi Qianwen license, a custom license that is free for most commercial and research use but requires a separate license from Alibaba once a deployment exceeds 100 million monthly active users. It was published in January 2024 and was later superseded by Qwen2-72B-Instruct.

Qwen 7B

This is the post-trained, instruction-tuned release, able to process images together with text and handle general chat, coding assistance, and agentic tool use. It has a 262,144-token native context window, extensible up to roughly 1,010,000 tokens, and is released under the Apache 2.0 license. At around 4.7 billion parameters, 4-bit quantization needs under 3GB of memory, so it runs easily on almost any modern GPU or laptop.

Qwen3.5 35B A3B

Alibaba · 36.0B · runs from 15.7 GB

Qwen3.5 35B A3B is Alibaba's mixture-of-experts vision-language model in the Qwen3.5 line, totaling 36 billion parameters with about 3 billion active per token (the A3B in its name). It accepts text, images, and video as input, using a hybrid linear-attention and sparse-MoE architecture built for efficiency. Only the active parameters compute per token, so generation is faster than a same-sized dense model, though all 36 billion weights must fit in memory, calling for a high-end 24-32GB-class GPU once quantized. The model offers a 262K token context window for long documents or multi-turn chats. It is released under the Apache 2.0 license, permitting unrestricted commercial and research use, and was published in February 2026 as part of Alibaba's push toward efficient multimodal MoE models.

It is trained on a large dataset of source code and natural language but is not instruction-tuned, making it suitable for fine-tuning, code-related research, and custom downstream applications. The model supports a 128K token context window and runs efficiently on consumer GPUs. It serves as the foundation for the Qwen2.5 Coder 7B Instruct variant and community fine-tunes targeting specific programming languages or workflows. Released under the Apache 2.0 license.

Qwen1.5 MoE A2.7B

Alibaba · 14.3B · runs from 6.8 GB

Qwen1.5 MoE A2.7B is a Mixture of Experts (MoE) model from Alibaba Cloud's Qwen 1.5 generation, with 14.3 billion total parameters but only 2.7 billion active parameters per forward pass. The MoE architecture allows it to deliver performance closer to dense 7B models while requiring less compute during inference, as only a subset of expert layers are activated for each token. The model supports a 32K token context window and requires VRAM proportional to its total parameter count for loading, despite lower compute cost per token. It is an interesting architectural variant for users exploring efficient inference and MoE models locally. Released under a custom Qwen license.
