An evaluation row appears only where at least two of these models report the same benchmark with the same stated configuration, metric, unit and setup. Different evaluators stay named in each cell. Values are shown as reported: no unit conversion, no ranking.
Other Reported Results
These results are listed for each model on its own, because the conditions needed to compare them are not stated or do not match. Two results that leave a condition blank are not assumed to share it.

SAVRN's Notes on gemma-4-26B-A4B-it
Gemma 4 26B A4B is the most downloaded Gemma 4 model in our catalog, at about 9.8 million a month. It is a mixture-of-experts design with 25.8B total parameters and roughly 4B active per token, so it answers with the speed of a small model and much of the knowledge of a large one. It reads text and images and keeps a 262,144-token context.
At 16-bit it needs about 62 GB, one large-memory accelerator; at 4-bit about 16 GB, which fits a workstation card. Apache 2.0 allows commercial use. For a team choosing one open multimodal model to self-host this year, this is near the top of our list.
SAVRN's Notes on Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-NVFP4
Unsloth's NVFP4 cut of Qwen/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B: 24.6B stated parameters in a 256-expert mixture where 8 fire per token, so the 4-bit row — 12.3 GB of weights, 14.8 GB needed — is the number that matters, and the publisher says it runs on a 32 GB VRAM GPU. Our table reads 59.1 GB at 16-bit, 29.6 GB at 8-bit, 14.8 GB at 4-bit; the cheapest listed setup, one MI300X at $1.85 an hour, leaves room for the 262,144-token context.
The publisher claims 1.56x the throughput of other NVFP4 quants, calibrated on its own dataset mixed with UltraChat, benchmarked on one B200 at 128 concurrent requests — treat those as vendor numbers and test your own prompts. Apache 2.0 covers commercial use. Mind the landscape: the same base has NVFP4 builds from Red Hat AI and Ornith in this index with different stated parameter counts, so pick by serving stack and validate the checkpoint, not the name. It draws 1.1M downloads a month.
