Can the RTX 6000D run Qwen3.5 9B?
Yes. Qwen3.5 9B fits the RTX 6000D's 84 GB at Q4_K_M (about 7.8 GB needed), running at an estimated 150 tok/s. There's room for up to FP16 if you want higher quality.

| Quant | Weights | Needs | Fit | Est. speed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Q4_K_M | 6 GB | 7.8 GB | Fits easily | ~150 tok/s |
| Q5_K_M | 7 GB | 8.8 GB | Fits easily | ~129 tok/s |
| Q8_0 | 10 GB | 11.8 GB | Fits easily | ~90 tok/s |
| FP16 | 19 GB | 20.8 GB | Fits easily | ~47 tok/s |
Estimates. Needs = weights + 1.8 GB for KV cache and runtime at modest context. Speed is single-stream decode scaled from the RTX 6000D's 1570 GB/s bandwidth (Estimated from memory bandwidth (llama.cpp decode)). Long contexts need more memory and run slower.

Frequently asked
Quick answers
Can the RTX 6000D run Qwen3.5 9B?
Yes. Qwen3.5 9B fits the RTX 6000D's 84 GB at Q4_K_M (about 7.8 GB needed), running at an estimated 150 tok/s. There's room for up to FP16 if you want higher quality.
How much VRAM does Qwen3.5 9B need?
About 6 GB of weights at Q4_K_M, 10 GB at Q8_0 and 19 GB at FP16. Add roughly 1.8 GB for the KV cache and runtime at modest context lengths.
How fast is Qwen3.5 9B on the RTX 6000D?
Roughly 150 tokens per second at Q4_K_M (single user, llama.cpp-style decode). This is an estimate from the RTX 6000D's 1570 GB/s memory bandwidth.
