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 Qwen3.6-35B-A3B
86.3 GB is the figure that picks the hardware. The 16-bit weights need that much once loaded, and the cheapest listed card, one MI300X with 192 GB, holds it at $1.85 an hour on-demand. At 4-bit the footprint is 21.6 GB, leaving most of the card for the 262,144-token window. Only 8 of 256 experts fire per token: memory for all 36B parameters, compute for a slice. It takes images as well as text, and the publisher's summary leads with coding.
Apache 2.0 allows commercial use, modification and redistribution, provided the notices travel with it. Before committing a card, price the rental: DeepInfra lists $0.10 in and $0.95 out per million tokens, Scaleway $0.29 and $1.71. If your volume will not fill $1.85 an hour, rent; if it will, the 71.9 GB of safetensors is yours. Released April 15, 2026 and updated April 24, so check the revision you pulled.
