MiMo-V2.6 Flash 309B-A15B on Radeon AI PRO R9700 workstation (32 GB)

309B (15B active) on 32 GB at 644 GB/s. Hardware details · Model details

No calculated fit. MiMo-V2.6 Flash 309B-A15B does not fit under standard overhead assumptions at Q4_K_M: the model calculates 187.2 GB required against 29.4 GB usable.

No quantization in our catalogue fits this machine.
Discrete GPU: 32 GB of VRAM, of which we assume 92% is usable after driver and context overhead.
Mixture of experts: all 309B parameters must be resident in memory even though only ~15B are active per token. Memory follows total parameters; speed follows active parameters.

No throughput figures for this configuration. We do not estimate performance for a model that cannot load.
How the estimate is calculated
  1. Decode: reading 15.0B active parameters at 4.85 bits/weight takes 14.86 ms at 644 GB/s x 95% achieved efficiency.
  2. MoE routing penalty of 15% applied: expert gathers are less bandwidth-efficient than a dense sweep.
  3. Prefill: 96 TFLOPS (FP16) x 2.46 calibrated against measured prefill on this platform x 32% assumed model-FLOPs utilisation, divided by 2 x 68.1B parameters per token.
  4. Prefill uses 68.1B effective parameters, not the 15B active in decode: a batch of hundreds of tokens routes across most of the expert pool.

  • MoE decode depends on how well the engine batches expert gathers; real results vary more than for dense models.
  • Prefill throughput is highly engine-dependent. Flash attention, batch size and quantized KV all move this number substantially, and for sparse mixture-of-experts models it is the least reliable figure we produce.
  • This is a calculated estimate, not a measurement. It assumes a single request, a short prompt, no speculative decoding and a warm model already resident in memory.

Estimator version estimator_v1. Stored with every estimated row so old estimates can be regenerated when the model improves.

Calculated

The $100 comparison uses the Codex Pro 5x / Claude Max 5x plans. A fixed planning conversion is used for USD. This compares monthly spend only: subscriptions have usage limits, local hardware has different capabilities and constraints, and taxes or regional pricing may change the charged amount. Prices checked 7 September 2026.

Purchase-price input: $2,521 in United States (federal), tax/VAT excluded · estimated · NL retail (system build) (converted catalogue estimate). This is the localized purchase input; the after-tax economic cost is calculated separately below.

$2,143 written down over 5 years to a $378 residual.
After-tax economic cost

Depreciation plus running costs plus cost of capital, less the tax those deductions save. This is the figure to compare between machines.

0% Official spec
Federal C-corporation estimate at the flat 21% rate. Pass-through entities should use the sole-proprietor estimate as a rougher proxy.

Average power draw

Load 420 W for 20% of powered hours, idle 45 W for the rest — a machine that is on is not generating tokens the whole time.

$4.83/month Assumption
Federal planning estimate only, not tax advice. State and local income tax, sales/use tax and incentives are excluded. It assumes 100% business use, a Section 179 election, enough business income to use it, and that the full annual limit remains available.
