Qwen3.6-27B-AEON-Ultimate-Uncensored-BF16

48 of 64 layers use linear attention, which keeps a fixed-size recurrent state instead of a per-token cache. Those layers do not grow with context at all — treating them as ordinary attention, as a flat formula does, overstates this model's cache by roughly 4.0× at long context.

A parameters × bits ÷ 8 estimate puts Q4_K_M at roughly 14.33 GiB. The real file is 15.41 GiB, because a quantization is a mixture and some tensors are always kept at higher precision.

How much VRAM does Qwen3.6-27B-AEON-Ultimate-Uncensored-BF16 need?

Q4_K_M is exactly 16,547,399,712 bytes (15.41 GiB) in weights. Add the KV cache, which depends on your context length, plus roughly half a gigabyte of runtime overhead.

How large is Qwen3.6-27B-AEON-Ultimate-Uncensored-BF16's KV cache?

2.00 GiB at 32K context with an f16 cache, computed per layer. Quantizing the cache to q8_0 roughly halves it, which is often the difference between a context length fitting and not.

Which quantization of Qwen3.6-27B-AEON-Ultimate-Uncensored-BF16 should I use?

Q4_K_M is the usual default. Pick the largest quantization that fits your card at the context you actually need — the table above gives exact sizes for every one published.
