What the ThinkingCap-Qwen3.6-27B numbers mean

The fastest verified result on our board is 27.9 output tok/s on an Intel Arc Pro B70 at Q6_K with a 131072-token context. That is about 35.9 ms per generated token — 500 tokens takes roughly 18.0 seconds. Prompt processing on the same record runs at 936.0 tok/s, so a 2,000-token prompt is read in about 2.1 seconds.

How much VRAM does ThinkingCap-Qwen3.6-27B need?

ThinkingCap-Qwen3.6-27B has 28.0B 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.

QuantisationEstimated VRAMSmallest card that fits
Q4_K_M (4-bit)18.9 GB24 GB
Q8_0 (8-bit)35.0 GB48 GB
FP16 (16-bit)65.2 GB80 GB

Long contexts and large batches raise the real number — read the smallest card as "possible with a reduced context". Measured throughput is on the benchmark board.
