How much VRAM do you need to run Qwen Drive 1.0 4B?
With an estimated 4.5B parameters, Qwen Drive 1.0 4B needs roughly 5 GB of VRAM in 8-bit (INT8), 3 GB in 4-bit, and 10 GB in FP16, including a 20% overhead for activations and KV cache.
Which GPUs can run Qwen Drive 1.0 4B?
At 8-bit quantization, the most cost-effective option is 1x NVIDIA T4 (16 GB combined VRAM, around $0.50/hour on-demand). Higher-end cards like the NVIDIA B200 or AMD MI355X reduce the GPU count needed.
Can Qwen Drive 1.0 4B run on a single GPU?
Yes. In 8-bit, a single NVIDIA P100 SXM2 (16 GB) fits the model.
How much does it cost to serve Qwen Drive 1.0 4B in the cloud?
Renting 1x T4 costs on the order of $0.50/hour, i.e. about $365/month running 24/7. Actual prices vary by provider and commitment; spot and reserved capacity can be significantly cheaper.
