Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-ROCmFPX-GGUF

⚠️ These files do NOT load on standard llama.cpp

They use AMD-native *_ROCMFPX tensor types from the experimental ciru-ai/ROCmFPX llama.cpp fork (build from source).

Derivative of Qwen3.6-35B-A3B, quantized using MagicQuant hybrid evolutionary per-tensor search and quantized to AMD-native ROCmFPX formats (fork-only) tuned for Strix Halo (gfx1151).

Base Model

This is a derivative of Qwen3.6-35B-A3B. All credit for the base model architecture and weights goes to the original authors. The base model's license applies to this derivative.

Quantization Method

Quantized using MagicQuant hybrid evolutionary per-tensor quantization, based on the methodology by magiccodingman:

  • Tensors are classified into sensitivity groups (Embeddings, Head, Query, Key, Output, FFN Up/Down, MoE Experts, Router)
  • An evolutionary search finds the optimal quantization type per group, balancing size vs. perplexity
  • Q4/Q5/Q6 tier targets are produced with different size-quality tradeoffs
  • Small-row tensors and sensitivity-critical layers (embeddings, output head, router) are kept at F32/F16/BF16
  • This is NOT a uniform quantization -- each tensor group gets its own optimal type

ROCmFPX (AMD-native, fork-only)

These GGUFs use AMD-native quantization schemes from the experimental ciru-ai/ROCmFPX llama.cpp fork, tuned for and benchmarked on AMD Strix Halo (Radeon 8060S iGPU, gfx1151, unified memory):

  • ROCmFP3/4/6/8 tensor types with straight and "agent" presets (agent presets keep tool-calling / JSON-structured output reliable at low bit-widths)
  • Files load only on the fork -- it is an experimental upstream research build, so build from the pinned commit that produced these files (the default branch may have moved on since):
git clone https://github.com/ciru-ai/ROCmFPX.git ROCmFPX
cd ROCmFPX
git checkout 68f23f34c12d7e61177a034b0d8d3fea2129565e
# then build per the fork's own README

Usage

Requires a from-source build of the ROCmFPX fork (stock llama.cpp, LM Studio, and Ollama cannot load these files):

# Interactive chat (--jinja uses the model's embedded chat template)
llama-cli -m Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-ROCMFPX-MQ-Q4.gguf -c 8192 --jinja -cnv

# Server mode
llama-server -m Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-ROCMFPX-MQ-Q4.gguf -c 8192 --port 8080 -ngl 99 -fa on --jinja

Serving: MTP Speculative Decoding

This model includes MTP ("nextn") draft tensors, enabling self-speculative decoding -- measured ~1.6-1.9x faster generation with a ~95% first-token accept rate (no separate draft model needed; it drafts from itself):

llama-server -m Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-ROCMFPX-MQ-Q4.gguf -c 8192 --port 8080 --host 127.0.0.1 -ngl 99 -md Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-ROCMFPX-MQ-Q4.gguf --spec-type draft-mtp -ctk q8_0 -ctv q8_0 -fa on

Memory cost: MTP needs its own draft context alongside the main context, so serving with it uses roughly 2x the model's memory compared to serving without -md/--spec-type draft-mtp.

Caveats

  • The base model's license (apache-2.0) applies to all derivative files
  • Fork-only files: stock llama.cpp, LM Studio, and Ollama cannot load these -- build ciru-ai/ROCmFPX from source
  • Quantization reduces precision -- verify outputs for your specific use case
  • The hybrid quantization assigns different precision to different tensor groups, which means quality characteristics may differ from uniform quantizations

Limitations

  • Quantized models may exhibit subtle differences from the full-precision fine-tune
  • This model inherits any limitations and biases present in the base model
