[!IMPORTANT] This GGUF uses custom ROCmFP4 tensor types. It requires ROCmFPX or a runtime with equivalent support. Stock llama.cpp, Ollama, LM Studio, and similar stock runtimes cannot load it.

I also suggest usign the template from https://huggingface.co/froggeric/Qwen-Fixed-Chat-Templates Froggeric is tha dude.

This release was tested only on AMD Strix Halo / gfx1151. Other AMD targets may require a different ROCmFPX build and are untested; CPU-only, NVIDIA, and non-ROCmFPX runtimes are not supported by this card.

What it is

This is an iMatrix-calibrated quantization of the official Qwen/Qwen3.5-122B-A10B checkpoint. It was built with ROCmFPX's compact Q4_0_ROCMFP4_STRIX_LEAN recipe; the hardware-oriented preset name is left out of the public filename.

Files

The main model is complete and runs independently. The 23-tensor, one-layer MTP file is an optional external companion; no MTP layer is embedded in the main GGUF. Runtimes call this role a draft model, but Draft is omitted from the public filename because it does not mean unfinished.

Quality: stock and Heretic KLD

This is the card's only comparison between the stock and Heretic builds. Each ROCmFP4 iMatrix model was replayed against saved distributions from its own exact BF16 parent, using the same runtime, WikiText-2 token sequence, ROCm0 backend, two 512-token chunks, and 510 evaluated next-token distributions.

Lower KLD means the quantized model's next-token distribution stayed closer to its own BF16 source. It does not rank the underlying stock and Heretic models, and it is not an intelligence or benchmark score.

The two-chunk scope is deliberately bounded: this is the demonstrated-safe BF16 workload on the tested 128 GB system. Treat it as a controlled calibration comparison, not a completed large-corpus acceptance gate. The Heretic card's headline uses a separate 11-chunk replay; its value is therefore not expected to match the two-chunk, method-matched figure reported here.

Performance

Measured on a 128 GB AMD Strix Halo system with Vulkan/RADV, 131,072 context, parallel 1, batch/ubatch 2048/1024, Q8_0 KV cache, flash attention, and MTP off. Values are medians from repeated runs of this stock artifact.

These are single-system measurements, not general performance guarantees. The MTP companion is included for compatible runtimes, but this card does not claim an MTP speed result for the iMatrix artifact.

Quantization and matrix provenance

The model was quantized once from the validated BF16 GGUF using the Q4_0_ROCMFP4_STRIX_LEAN preset and the importance matrix published with bartowski/Qwen_Qwen3.5-122B-A10B-GGUF at revision f89fb67573c0155d8e5b6556204d86c75cdce0d8.

In this preset, attention K/V tensors retain dual-scale ROCmFP4 protection, most transformer weights use the compact FAST layout, and token embeddings use Q5_K while the separate output head uses the FAST layout. The artifact contains 879 tensors across 48 blocks and no embedded MTP layer.

The matrix contains 612 entries from 802 × 512-token chunks. Structural inspection found finite paired tensors and 37,323 of 37,332 expert count slots covered; nine slots had zero observations. A quantizer dry run accepted all 612 importance entries. The matrix publisher identified the official upstrQwen3-235B-A22Beam model but did not pin an immutable upstream weight revision, so that provenance limitation is recorded here rather than silently inferred.

Run

Use the ROCmFPX-built llama-server, not a stock llama.cpp binary:

llama-server \
  --model Qwen3.5-122B-A10B-ROCmFP4-iMatrix.gguf \
  --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8080 \
  -dev Vulkan0 --n-gpu-layers 999 \
  --ctx-size 131072 --parallel 1 \
  --flash-attn on --batch-size 2048 --ubatch-size 1024 \
  --cache-type-k q8_0 --cache-type-v q8_0 \
  --jinja --reasoning-format deepseek

Adjust context and cache settings for your memory budget. The tested runtime was charlie12345/ROCmFPX commit a6a93765f7ce9779c13f9881164a65f7a9f31198, built in Release mode for gfx1151 with Vulkan and HIP enabled. Correct inference also requires the duplicate Qwen3.5 MoE down-scale fix from llama.cpp PR #24331, commit 02810c7: without it, the expert down scale is applied twice. The pinned ROCmFPX commit did not yet contain the fix, so the tested runtime applied that exact nine-line correction locally; use a newer ROCmFPX revision or equivalent runtime that includes it. Results with other revisions have not yet been established.

The GGUF embeds the same chat template shipped separately in this repository, so the command uses --jinja without an external template path. --reasoning-format deepseek is the tested llama.cpp parser for this template's reasoning output, not a claim that the model is a DeepSeek derivative. The model file alone occupies 60.70 GiB; leave additional memory for the runtime and KV cache, especially at the tested 131,072-token context.

To enable the optional companion, append:

  --spec-type draft-mtp \
  --spec-draft-model Qwen3.5-122B-A10B-ROCmFP4-MTP.gguf \
  --spec-draft-device Vulkan0 --spec-draft-ngl 999 \
  --spec-draft-type-k f16 --spec-draft-type-v f16 \
  --spec-draft-n-max 2 --spec-draft-p-min 0.6 \
  --spec-draft-p-split 0.10 --spec-draft-backend-sampling
