Llama 3.3 70B is 70.6B, 128K tokens on the official card. GLM 5.3 Flash is 320B total / 18B active, 1,048,576 tokens. Q6 / Q5 / Q4 file sizes come from the listed GGUFs on each /models page, or a calculator estimate when a listing is missing. Q3 stays off. Q4 does not sit in one R9700VRAM on either side — expect RAM offload. Neither model was measured on the local desktop. Fit numbers are calculator estimates. llama.cpp first.
How we test
— Measured cells cite official amdai-bench/run@1 cards. Estimates stay labeled. Q3 is estimate-only. Q1/Q2 stay off.
Official card: 320B total / 18B active. 11 of 45 layers are sparse attention (MLA, kv_lora_rank 512, K-only cache) and grow the context store plus an 11×384 indexer (raw + 2 pooled rows). 34 linear (KDA) layers hold a fixed state. max_position_embeddings 1,048,576. 288 routed experts + 1 shared, 8 per token. Consumer cards offload; both RAM lines are estimates until measured.
Existing GPU sheets only: R9700, RX 7900 XTX, RX 7900 XT, RX 7800 XT. llama.cpp, f16 KV.
Totals are calculator estimates. Speed is measured only on R9700 35B cells that already exist;
everything else stays not measured yet. This table lists Q6 / Q5 / Q4. Q3 stays on the calculator as a labeled estimate.

System RAM
When a shopper file does not fit, the spill is system RAM.
Shopper lines stay Minimum system RAM needed and
RAM needed at full context on one R9700 at the model’s shopper quant,
32K selected and the official-card full context. Estimate unless a measured R9700 card overlays the kit.

Chat
Neither model holds Q4 in one R9700 VRAM on the calculator. Chat still works with RAM offload — read Minimum system RAM needed and RAM needed at full context below.
Coding agents
Both sides offload shopper Q4 on one R9700. A coding agent will share that RAM spill. Minimum system RAM needed and RAM needed at full context are the shopper lines. We do not invent a tokens-per-tool figure.
Long context
Cited context is 128K tokens vs 1,048,576 tokens. KV grows with context. Q4 at 32K spills on Llama 3.3 70B and spills on GLM 5.3 Flash on one R9700. Read /long-context for measured R9700 35B 128K–262K cards. We do not invent a 128K decode figure here.
Size and VRAM
Llama 3.3 70B files: Q6_K 57.89 GB, Q5_K_M 49.95 GB, Q4_K_M 42.52 GB. GLM 5.3 Flash files: UD-Q6_K_XL 291.83 GB, UD-Q5_K_XL 240.31 GB, UD-Q4_K_XL 199.71 GB. Fit on the four existing GPU sheets below. Empty speed cells stay not measured yet.
