Qwen 3.5/3.6 35B A3B is a 35.95B-parameter mixture-of-experts model (3B active per token). At Q4_K_M it needs about 22.9 GB of memory. The NVIDIA RTX 4070 Ti Super 16GB has 15 GB usable, so it only fits with part of the model offloaded to system RAM, which slows it down. Expect about 67 tokens/sec (25–108), with the first token after 1.2 s for a short prompt. This estimate is projected from the hardware specs; no benchmarks exist yet.
