Can I run Qwen-Image on AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (24GB)?
Yes. Qwen-Image runs on AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (24GB) at Q4_K_M GGUF (~14 GB of ~23 GB usable).
Runs at Q4_K_M GGUF using ~14 GB of ~23 GB usable.

- Q4_K_M GGUF
How to run it
Use ComfyUI or Nunchaku (SVDQuant 4-bit) at Q4_K_M GGUF. The big text encoder is loaded to encode your prompt, then offloaded before generation, which is why peak VRAM stays near the backbone size rather than the sum of every file.

FAQ
Can AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (24GB) run Qwen-Image?
Yes. Qwen-Image runs on AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (24GB) at Q4_K_M GGUF (~14 GB of ~23 GB usable).
How much VRAM does Qwen-Image need?
AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (24GB) has room to spare. At Q4_K_M GGUF the realistic peak is ~14 GB of VRAM, versus ~57 GB with every component kept resident (no offload). With aggressive CPU offload it drops to ~3 GB, much slower.
What do I use to run Qwen-Image locally?
Qwen-Image runs in ComfyUI or Nunchaku (SVDQuant 4-bit). It loads as a diffusion checkpoint plus its text encoder and VAE, not a single chat command.
