What the Qwen3-30B-A3B-Thinking-2507 numbers mean
The fastest verified result on our board is 94.3 output tok/s on an RTX 3060 x2 at Q4_K_M with a 65536-token context. That is about 10.6 ms per generated token — 500 tokens takes roughly 5.3 seconds. Prompt processing on the same record runs at 1073.4 tok/s, so a 2,000-token prompt is read in about 1.9 seconds. Peak VRAM was measured at 20.1 GB.
How much VRAM does Qwen3-30B-A3B-Thinking-2507 need?
Qwen3-30B-A3B-Thinking-2507 has 31.0B parameters. These estimates use the same formula as the VRAM calculator: weights, plus about 15% for a moderate-context KV cache and runtime overhead, plus a small engine floor.
