I would be happy with a little more reserve on my cards, but this is my first trial with a little more context than "Hi"

Hi@palladium107, thanks for sharing the metrics. I observed linear performance degradation on input and output speed (https://huggingface.co/AtomicChat/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-GGUF/discussions/13) with the 4.27bpw variant on a Mac Studio. wondering if you saw the same on your setup.

Running the 85GB quantization on a 9950X setup with 64GB DDR5 and dual GPUs (32GB total VRAM), I haven't experienced any performance degradation, maintaining a steady 13-15 t/s even at a 100k context length. However, the reasoning effort is exceptionally high. First impressions show better output quality compared to the 27B dense model, but at the cost of significantly lower speeds (60 t/s versus 13 t/s).
I'm using LMstudio and win11.

Unfortunately I had some urgent code fixes yesterday, and I did not have time to test Flash Next any further, I just used Qwen3.8-27B, but today I will try Flash Next on some more complex features.
