Qwen3.8-Flash-Next VRAM: 131.53 GiB
Qwen3.8-Flash-Next has 179,999,981,459 total parameters in this catalog. Activated parameter count is not independently sourced. Full-resident weight estimates use totalParameters. The smallest published weight file is GGUF Q4_K_M (bartowski) (bartowski/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-GGUF) at 119,599,030,080 bytes (111.39 GiB). At 8,192 tokens, 1 sequence, FP16 KV, engine llama.cpp, the calculator estimates 111.75 GiB–131.53 GiB (119,991,197,504–141,224,470,933.2 bytes). Catalog unit assumption: Vendor-marketed GB for discrete GPU VRAM is treated as GiB (2^30 bytes), matching physical GDDR/HBM module organization. This is an explicit unit assumption. Under that rule, 16 GB is 17,179,869,184 bytes, 24 GB is 25,769,803,776 bytes, 32 GB is 34,359,738,368 bytes, 64 GB is 68,719,476,736 bytes. That smallest file is larger than each of those budgets, and no other published file for this model is smaller, so none of 16, 24, 32, or 64 GB fits a published file. The calculator total is higher than the file. Bartowski GGUF files in this catalog: GGUF Q4_K_M (bartowski), GGUF Q5_K_M (bartowski), GGUF Q6_K (bartowski). This catalog has no calibration trace and no planned benchmark for this model. The ranges above are calculator estimates, not a measured run. The allowlisted device check is Qwen3.8-Flash-Next on NVIDIA DGX Spark (GB10, 128 GB unified). Community recipes: TensorFold v0.6.1 MLX on one DGX Spark, SGLang file-backed PLE on one DGX Spark. The estimate method is the config and byte split and the methodology.
Qwen3.8-Flash-Next Q4_K_M at 8,192 tokens needs 111.75 GiB–131.53 GiB. No device is selected, so this is demand only, not a fit. Rough estimate. BF16 file: 359,999,963,128 bytes.
The Qwen/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next checkpoint ships BF16 safetensors of 359,999,963,128 bytes (335.28 GiB / 360.00 GB) in this catalog. That download size is not peak GPU memory, and the figures below are estimates.

How this Qwen3.8-Flash-Next estimate is calculated
Catalog config for Qwen/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next (revision de4b8e4d43b917e7706784d8bb445c9af86a3540) records 48 layers, hidden size 2,560, 24 attention heads, 2 KV heads, head_dim 256, and max_position_embeddings 262,144. The hybrid spec is 12 groups (12 gated-attention layers, 36 Gated DeltaNet layers). KV uses those attention layers only. The all-layer GQA formula is not used.
The catalog MoE block lists 512 experts and 10 experts per token. expertOffload is unspecified. Activated parameter count is not independently sourced. Full-resident weight estimates use totalParameters. Full-resident weight estimates use totalParameters (179,999,981,459). Expert count does not shrink the file.
Vision tensors are present. Encoder bytes are not a separable file group, so they are not added as a second weight total. MTP is present. MTP file bytes are not separable from the main shard map.
The no-device auto-select is GGUF Q4_K_M (bartowski), 4 files from bartowski/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-GGUF, 119,599,030,080 bytes (111.39 GiB). At 8,192 tokens, 1 sequence, FP16 KV, llama.cpp, the calculator estimates 111.75 GiB–131.53 GiB.This catalog has no calibration and no planned benchmark for this model. The range is a calculator estimate, not a measured run.
Official BF16 safetensors in this catalog are 359,999,963,128 bytes (335.28 GiB) across 131 shards. That checkpoint is not the auto-selected file. The title figure is the high end of the auto-selected total, not the BF16 file size.

Assumptions that affect this result
- Requested context is within the recorded native window of 262144 tokens.
- Full-resident weight estimates use total parameters, including inactive MoE experts.
- Activated parameter count is unknown / not independently sourced. Active parameters describe routed compute, not the full resident model weight footprint.
- Weight bytes come from the selected weight files only, not from every file in the repository.
- Download file size is not peak GPU memory. Runtime layout, allocator padding, and KV are extra.
- Counted files: Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Q4_K_M/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Q4_K_M-00001-of-00004.gguf, Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Q4_K_M/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Q4_K_M-00002-of-00004.gguf, Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Q4_K_M/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Q4_K_M-00003-of-00004.gguf, Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Q4_K_M/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Q4_K_M-00004-of-00004.gguf.
- This checkpoint has a vision component. Text-only inference does not include vision encoder or projector bytes.
- Multi-token prediction / draft weights exist and are not included unless enabled.
