Frequently asked questions

Can Qwen 3 4B run on AMD MI325X 288GB?

Yes. Qwen 3 4B at FP16 needs 17.7 GB including the KV cache, and AMD MI325X 288GB has 288 GB — so it fits on a single GPU.

How fast is Qwen 3 4B on AMD MI325X 288GB?

487.5 tokens/sec per stream and 5850 tok/s aggregate with continuous batching at 8 concurrent users. Time to first token is 132.3 ms, and inter-token latency is 2.1 ms.

What does Qwen 3 4B on AMD MI325X 288GB cost per million tokens?

$0.1662 per 1M output tokens at 1× AMD MI325X 288GB ($3.50/hr). That is the marginal hardware cost — add idle capacity, ops, and egress for the real figure.

How much VRAM does Qwen 3 4B need on AMD MI325X 288GB?

8.0 GB for the weights at FP16, plus 9.7 GB of KV cache for 8 concurrent requests at 8K context — 17.7 GB total. Every extra concurrent user at long context costs more, so leave headroom.

Is AMD MI325X 288GB the right choice for Qwen 3 4B?

It works. Compare $0.1662 per 1M tokens against the alternatives below — the cheapest option that fits the same workload is 2× RTX 3080 10GB at $0.0441, and the fastest is 1× Cerebras CS-3 (WSE-3) at 19500 tok/s.
