Qwen3.8 Flash Next 176B

176B MoE Model Runs on 16GB Laptop GPU

A developer ran Qwen3.8 Flash Next 176B on a laptop with a 16GB RTX 3080, 32GB RAM, and an SSD using his open-source engine TensorSharp. Benchmarks show 11.09 tok/s decode versus Strata's 10.24 tok/s, and whole-process time of 16.54s versus 62.15s. The result suggests quantization plus MoE-aware scheduling across VRAM, RAM, and SSD can make huge sparse models usable on consumer hardware.
