Can I run dots.llm1 on AMD Ryzen AI Halo (128GB)?
No. dots.llm1 needs ~98.1 GB even at Q4_K_M, but AMD Ryzen AI Halo (128GB) only has ~96 GB usable.
Needs ~98.1 GB even at Q4_K_M, but only ~96 GB is usable.
That figure is at a 4k context and moves about ±15% as context length changes.
The gap is about 2.1 GB: dots.llm1 needs roughly 98.1 GB at Q4_K_M and AMD Ryzen AI Halo (128GB) leaves only about 96 GB usable for a model. The lightest tracked hardware that runs dots.llm1 is the Apple M3 Ultra (256GB) at 256 GB. See dots.llm1 on Apple M3 Ultra (256GB).

FAQ
Can AMD Ryzen AI Halo (128GB) run dots.llm1?
No. dots.llm1 needs ~98.1 GB even at Q4_K_M, but AMD Ryzen AI Halo (128GB) only has ~96 GB usable.
How much memory does dots.llm1 need?
AMD Ryzen AI Halo (128GB) does not have enough memory. At Q4_K_M the weights are ~94.4 GB; with KV cache and runtime overhead, budget ~98.1 GB at a 4k context. It is a Mixture-of-Experts model (142B total / 14B active), so all experts must stay in memory; memory tracks total params, not active params.
What is the best tool to run dots.llm1 on Windows?
LM Studio for a simple setup; Ollama (CUDA) for the most speed. AMD GPUs run via Vulkan/ROCm at roughly half CUDA throughput. NVIDIA is the smooth path on Windows.

Weights are measured from GGUF files; KV cache and overhead are computed, so totals can vary ~15% with context and runtime. Any tok/s is a bandwidth estimate. See methodology.
