Nex-N2-mini GPTQ-Pro RTX 3090 benchmark

Nex-N2-mini GPTQ-Pro

This is a GPTQ-Pro 4-bit quantization of nex-agi/Nex-N2-mini.

It is a deployment artifact, not a new fine-tune. The goal is to make the Nex-N2-mini MoE checkpoint easier to test in GPTQ-compatible local serving stacks while keeping the model card honest about the validation status.

The source checkpoint includes vision/visual tensors. This artifact preserves those tensors, but the validated publication story here is text and coding-agent serving. Vision behavior has not yet been validated for the quantized artifact.

Tensor files 5
Safetensors size 19.23 GiB
Indexed tensors 124576

mtp.* tensors in index false
vision/visual tensors in index true
Index metadata size matches shards true

The source index/logs showed no mtp.* tensors. This artifact therefore normalizes text_config.mtp_num_hidden_layers to 0 and records the change under artifact_notes.mtp.

Intended Serving Shape

This checkpoint is intended for advanced users testing text-only GPTQ serving for Qwen3.6-style MoE models.

A starting vLLM shape for text-only testing:

vllm serve XReyRobert/Nex-N2-mini-GPTQ-Pro \
  --served-model-name nex-n2-mini-gptq-pro \
  --language-model-only \
  --dtype float16 \
  --quantization gptq_marlin \
  --tensor-parallel-size 1 \
  --max-model-len 262144 \
  --max-num-seqs 1 \
  --kv-cache-dtype fp8_e5m2 \
  --reasoning-parser qwen3 \
  --enable-auto-tool-choice \
  --tool-call-parser qwen3_coder \
  --enable-prefix-caching \
  --gpu-memory-utilization 0.95 \
  --trust-remote-code

Treat this as a starting point. Loader compatibility depends on vLLM, Transformers, GPTQModel, GPTQ-Marlin, and Qwen3.6 MoE support.

The RTX 3090 image above reflects separate 262k-context serving validation.

Validation And Benchmarks

Completed artifact checks:

  • Local shard index inspection completed before upload.
  • Remote file list verified after upload.
  • Remote model.safetensors.index.json verified after upload.
  • Index metadata total size matches the local safetensor shards.
  • The remote artifact contains the expected five safetensor shards.

Terminal-Bench 2.0 Smoke24 result and associated vLLM serving measurements. This Smoke24 run used max_model_len=131072 for apples-to-apples comparison with the other local models in this publication batch:

Run Score Success rate Wall-time Output tokens Observed decode LLM API time
nex-n2-mini-gptq-pro 14/24 58.3% 314.6m 1670.6k 140.8 tok/s 197.4m

Smoke24 is a fixed 24-task Terminal-Bench 2.0 comparison corpus, not a full Terminal-Bench leaderboard run. In this harness, Nex-N2-mini GPTQ-Pro tied the Qwen3.6 27B GPTQ reference on solved tasks but used more wall time and far more output tokens. That makes it a useful candidate for further serving and generation-control tuning, not an efficiency leader in this specific test.

Task list and harness shape:

MTP And Vision Status

  • mtp.* tensors are not present in this artifact.
  • text_config.mtp_num_hidden_layers was normalized to 0.
  • Do not enable MTP speculative decoding for this artifact.
  • Vision/visual tensors are present, but multimodal serving has not been validated for this quantized artifact.

Limitations

  • Experimental quantization.
  • Terminal-Bench Smoke24 is a small local comparison corpus, not a full benchmark submission.
  • Nex-N2-mini was verbose and reasoning-heavy in the Smoke24 harness; generation controls may need further tuning.
  • MTP speculative decoding is not supported by this artifact.
  • Vision tensors are preserved, but vision behavior has not been validated.
  • Loader behavior may vary across vLLM, Transformers, GPTQModel, and GPTQ-Marlin versions.
