Compatibility Check
Can I Run Qwen 2.5 Coder 32B on NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660?
Sort of — NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 can run Qwen 2.5 Coder 32B (Q8_0) only by spilling layers to RAM. Generation will be slow.
Estimated ~2 tokens/sec on the Q8_0 quantization.
Hybrid CPU+GPU
Best variant: Q8_0
CPU + GPU hybrid — not enough VRAM (6 GB < 36 GB min), but 64 GB RAM is sufficient. Expect significantly slower inference.
