Can I run Qwen3.8 9B Distill on AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395?
Runs great
Runs great fully in unified memory on your AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 at BF16, 8K context, about 7.5–10 tok/s. Weights 17.1 GB plus 0.27 GB of KV cache — 17.9 GB of 48.0 GB usable. Up to 256K context still fits.

Assumptions
- Estimate, not a benchmark. Decode speed uses a memory-bandwidth model at 55–75% of peak.
- KV cache is FP16. Engine overhead assumes llama.cpp (0.3 GB + 1% of the weights). Ollama is closer to 0.9 GB + 3%, LM Studio closer to 1 GB + 3%.
- BF16 size is the real GGUF file size from Hugging Face.
- Unified memory uses 75% for the GPU by default, and always leaves about 5 GB for the OS.
- Speed is quoted at 8K context, not at the maximum context that still fits.
