Quick Hardware Verdict
Ryzen AI Max+ 395 128GB (128GB physical, 99.8 GiB usable) runs 4-bit (Q4_K_M) Qwen3 Coder Next 80B-A3B at 8K context using 46.02 GiB with 53.78 GiB of safe headroom (~65.7 tok/s single-stream decode).
KV Cache & Runtime Tuning
Qwen3 Coder Next 80B-A3B uses Hybrid Linear/Mamba + MoE (79.67B total, 3B active per token). Moving from 8K to 32K context expands FP16 KV cache from 0.26 GiB to 0.82 GiB; enabling 8-bit KV cache (llama.cpp -ctk q8_0 -ctv q8_0 or vLLM --kv-cache-dtype fp8) saves 0.37 GiB at 32K (reducing total VRAM to 46.21 GiB).
