FLUX.1 Kontext [dev] on AMD Ryzen 5 1600 / 7 1700 / 2600 / 2700 NAS (8 GB)

Can the AMD Ryzen 5 1600 / 7 1700 / 2600 / 2700 NAS (8 GB) run FLUX.1 Kontext [dev]?

No, it doesn’t fit

No. FLUX.1 Kontext [dev] needs about 5.8 GB even at Q4 GGUF; the AMD Ryzen 5 1600 / 7 1700 / 2600 / 2700 NAS (8 GB) has 5.2 GB usable.

How it’s rated

Quality 76Great quality (A) · 76 of 100: how capable the model is at Q4 GGUF, whatever it runs on. Match score 10/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.: How capable the model itself is at Q4 GGUF, from its editorial quality tier scaled by the quantization or precision. It’s the same on any hardware that runs this variant. Scale: A+ 85+ · A 70+ · B 55+ · C 40+ · D under 40.
Runs Won't run: How well it runs on the AMD Ryzen 5 1600 / 7 1700 / 2600 / 2700 NAS (8 GB): speed, capped by how well it fits in memory. Runs great: 30+ tokens/s (or near the image, video or decision speed target) · Runs well: 10+ tokens/s · Slow: 3+ tokens/s · Very slow: under 3 · Won’t run: doesn’t fit even with offload. A tight fit or RAM offload caps it at Runs well; heavy offload caps it at Slow.

Match score

To order lists, each result also gets a match score out of 100 from four parts. It favors the most capable model that still runs well.

Model qualityEditorial quality tier of the model, scaled by the quantization or precision used.	10.3 / 45
Memory fitFull marks when the model fits in the share of the NAS’s memory that models can use (the rest stays with the NAS system and its storage services); fewer when it goes past that limit.	0.0 / 25
SpeedGeneration speed against a 40 tokens/s target for LLMs, or render time against a target for image and video.	0.0 / 15
Memory useRewards using the memory you have, so a bigger, better variant beats a tiny one that leaves most memory idle.	0.0 / 15
Match score	10.3 / 100

The match score orders results; it is not shown as a grade. Quality and Runs are the two ratings in the tables.

It doesn’t fit, so only a reduced share of the quality points counts and fit, speed and memory use score zero.
