This will only run on server hardware, some workstation GPUs, or some 128GB unified memory systems.
It’s a situation where if you have to ask, you can’t run the exact model they released. You have to wait for quantizations to smaller sizes, which come in a lot of varieties and have quality tradeoffs.
This would likely run fine in just 96 GB of VRAM, by my estimation. Well within the ability of an enthusiastic hobbyist with a few thousand dollars of disposable income.
Quantizations are already out: https://huggingface.co/unsloth/Qwen3.6-27B-GGUF
