How it’s rated

Quality 65Good quality (B) · 65 of 100: how capable the model is at Q3_K_M, whatever it runs on. Match score 70/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.
How capable the model itself is at Q3_K_M, 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 Runs well
How well it runs on the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 (DDR5 SO-DIMM) (32 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.

Quick answers

How much memory does SenseNova Loop 9B Preview need on the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 (DDR5 SO-DIMM) 32GB?

At Q3_K_M it needs about 7.7 GB. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 (DDR5 SO-DIMM) 32GB has 24.0 GB usable.

How fast is SenseNova Loop 9B Preview on the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 (DDR5 SO-DIMM) 32GB?

About 12.7 tok/s at Q3_K_M, an estimate from the hardware’s memory bandwidth and the size of the model.

Which quantization of SenseNova Loop 9B Preview should I use on the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 (DDR5 SO-DIMM) 32GB?

Q3_K_M. 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.
