The AMD Radeon RX 7600 comes with 8 GB of VRAM. Among the popular GGUF models we track, it can run 28 of them entirely in VRAM — including Llama-3.2-1B-Instruct-Q8_0-GGUF, Qwen3-4B-GGUF, Jan-v3.5-4B-gguf.

Larger models such as gpt-oss-20b-GGUF still run on a AMD Radeon RX 7600 but require offloading part of the model to system RAM, which lowers speed. Models that exceed both VRAM and RAM are not listed.

"Fits in VRAM" = fast, fully on GPU. "Offload" = part on system RAM, slower. Speed is a rough estimate.

Frequently asked questions

How much VRAM does the AMD Radeon RX 7600 have?

The AMD Radeon RX 7600 has 8 GB of VRAM, which determines how large a model it can run entirely on the GPU.

What is the best LLM to run on a AMD Radeon RX 7600?

Among popular models, hugging-quants/Llama-3.2-1B-Instruct-Q8_0-GGUF runs well on a AMD Radeon RX 7600 using the Q8_0 quantization (about 2.57 GB). Larger models trade speed for capability via RAM offloading.

Can a AMD Radeon RX 7600 run a 7–8B model?

Yes. A 7–8B model like Qwen3-8B-GGUF fits entirely in the 8 GB of a AMD Radeon RX 7600 (Q5_K_M).

Can a AMD Radeon RX 7600 run a 13–14B model?

Yes. A 13–14B model like Mistral-Nemo-Instruct-2407-GGUF fits entirely in the 8 GB of a AMD Radeon RX 7600 (Q3_K_S).

Can a AMD Radeon RX 7600 run a 70B model?

Only with offloading. A 70B model like Qwen3-Coder-Next-GGUF runs on a AMD Radeon RX 7600 by using system RAM in addition to its 8 GB, which is slower.
