On Linux

llama.cpp

Command line + local API · runs on llama.cpp

Splits the model between GPU memory and system RAM, which this setup needs.
Gives you direct control of how many layers sit on the GPU, the best way to squeeze a model that doesn’t quite fit.
Usually the first to support new model architectures.

How it’s rated

Quality 32Basic quality (D) · 32 of 100: how capable the model is at Q2_K, whatever it runs on. Match score 35/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.: How capable the model itself is at Q2_K, 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 Very slowfar over memory limit: How well it runs on the AMD R-Series RX-421ND 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.	14.5 / 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.	4.0 / 25
SpeedGeneration speed against a 40 tokens/s target for LLMs, or render time against a target for image and video.	2.4 / 15
Memory useRewards using the memory you have, so a bigger, better variant beats a tiny one that leaves most memory idle.	15.0 / 15
Match score	35.9 / 100

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

Quick answers

How much memory does Qwen2.5-Omni 7B need on the AMD R-Series RX-421ND NAS 8GB?

At Q2_K it needs about 5.8 GB. The AMD R-Series RX-421ND NAS 8GB has 5.2 GB usable.

How fast is Qwen2.5-Omni 7B on the AMD R-Series RX-421ND NAS 8GB?

About 1.1 tok/s at Q2_K, an estimate from the hardware’s memory bandwidth and the size of the model.

Which quantization of Qwen2.5-Omni 7B should I use on the AMD R-Series RX-421ND NAS 8GB?

Q2_K. Of the versions that fit, it is the one that runs best; when two run equally well, the check prefers the higher-rated one.

Estimates come from published hardware specs and our open formulas, not from running the model on your machine. Real speed varies with runtime, drivers and settings. Numbers marked “Measured” come from a linked benchmark.
