Can I Run Qwen3.6 35B A3B on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti?
Sort of — NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti can run Qwen3.6 35B A3B (Q8_0) only by spilling layers to RAM. Generation will be slow.
Estimated ~5 tokens/sec on the Q8_0 quantization.
Hybrid CPU+GPU
Best variant: Q8_0
CPU + GPU hybrid — not enough VRAM (8 GB < 40.3 GB min), but 64 GB RAM is sufficient. Expect significantly slower inference.
