Can I Run Devstral on Framework Desktop (Ryzen AI Max+ 395, 128 GB)?

作者： Jakub Rusinowski · 最后更新： 2026年9月11日

Technically yes, but not recommended

It loads, but it is not worth running — Devstral-2 123B at Q6_K fits in Framework Desktop (Ryzen AI Max+ 395, 128 GB)'s 128 GB, yet the memory bandwidth limits it to ~1.9 tok/s (estimated), well below usable interactive speed.

Confidence: medium · Recommended quantization: Q6_K · Estimated speed: ~1.9 tok/s

Which Devstral sizes fit

Variant	Needs at Q4_K_M	Fits?	Est. speed
Devstral-2 123B	77.9 GB	✓ Fits	~2.5 tok/s
Devstral Small 2 24B	17 GB	✓ Fits	~12.2 tok/s

What to watch out for

At ~1.9 tok/s this loads but is too slow for interactive use — expect roughly 32 seconds per 60 tokens.
This model does not publish its full attention configuration, so the KV-cache share of these figures is inferred from its parameter count rather than computed exactly.
Memory on this machine is not upgradeable, so the configuration you buy is the ceiling for every model you will ever run on it.

Framework Desktop 128 GB limitations

Memory is soldered LPDDR5X — unusually for Framework, this is the one component that cannot be upgraded.
ROCm/Vulkan support for Strix Halo is younger than CUDA; check your runtime supports it before buying.

Recommended setup

Ollama or llama.cpp (CUDA/ROCm) — vLLM if you need concurrent serving

How these numbers are calculated

Memory need = quantized weights + KV cache at 8,192 tokens (f16) + 0.8 GB runtime overhead.
128 GB unified memory at 256 GB/s, shared between CPU and GPU.
Throughput is a memory-bandwidth roofline estimate, not a measurement. It is labelled "estimated" everywhere it appears.
KV cache is inferred from the parameter count because this model does not publish its full attention configuration.
