Yes, just — 9.2 GB spare

GLM-5.3-Flash 320B-A18B at Q4_K_M fits your Instinct MI300X entirely on the GPU at 8K context, at an estimated 122 tokens per second. Past 866K the KV cache pushes it over — quantise the cache to q8_0, or step down a quantisation, to go longer.

Fully on GPU 8K context Q4_K_M · 180.5 GB MIT Released 25 Aug 2026 New this week Vision Not in the Ollama library

The first natively multimodal GLM-5 and the first hybrid: 34 linear-attention blocks and 11 sparse-attention blocks with a 512-wide latent cache, so a 1M window stays affordable. Z.ai says it beats GLM-5.2 at 18B active; MIT.

Quality is the published perplexity delta against f16 weights. Max context assumes an f16 KV cache; q8_0 roughly doubles it. Only 11 of its 45 blocks keep a per-token KV cache; the rest are linear-attention, Mamba or convolution blocks with a fixed-size state. This model uses multi-head latent attention, so its cache is a compressed latent rather than full K and V.

How to run it

$ llama-server \

01Download is 180.5 GB. Keep it on an SSD — a first load off a spinning disk takes minutes.
02Close anything else holding VRAM. A browser with hardware acceleration can sit on 1–2 GB.
03Only 9.2 GB is spare, so a long system prompt can still push it over. Its real ceiling here is 866K context.
