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 Qwen3.5-35B-A3B
A 36B-parameter mixture-of-experts that activates 8 of 256 experts per token, taking image and text in across a 262,144-token context. The 71.9 GB of weights need 86.3 GB at 16-bit, fitting one MI300X with 192 GB at $1.85 an hour from Vultr; at 8-bit it is 43.1 GB and at 4-bit 21.6 GB, leaving most of the card for context. Two hosts also sell it by the token — DeepInfra at $0.14 in and $1.00 out per million, Novita at $0.25 and $2.00 — so rent-versus-own is an arithmetic problem at your volume.
Apache 2.0 covers commercial use with notices kept and changes stated. This repo is the post-trained build, derived from Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-Base, so decide whether fine-tuning starts here or at the base. The publisher lists Transformers, vLLM, SGLang and KTransformers compatibility, and a vendor-made FP8 build (Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-FP8) exists if you would rather not quantize yourself. Reported GPQA Diamond results on our record run 84.2 to 85.35 depending on evaluator, both third-party claims. The hosted counterpart, Qwen3.5-Flash, is the yardstick if you would rather not own the GPU.
SAVRN's Notes on Qwen3.6-35B-A3B
Memory for 36B parameters, compute for the 3B that fire per token — that is the MoE trade in the A3B name, and it is why one MI300X with 192 GB at $1.85 an hour holds the full 16-bit working set of 86.3 GB with room for the 262,144-token window. At 4-bit the footprint is 21.6 GB, leaving most of the card for KV cache. The listing is image-and-text to text, the publisher's summary leads with coding, and third-party-reported evals are strong for the size: 86 on GPQA-diamond, 92.7 on AIME 2026, 73.4 on SWE-bench Verified.
Renting is priced against owning: DeepInfra lists $0.10 in and $0.95 out per million tokens, Scaleway $0.29 and $1.71 — run your monthly volume against the $1.85 card hour before committing. Apache 2.0 allows commercial use and modification with the notices kept. The 71.9 GB of safetensors span 40 files, released April 2026 and updated days later, so check the revision you pull; the MoE sibling tradeoff on this list is the dense Qwen3.6-27B, which posts higher evals at a similar card price.
Questions
Which is larger, Qwen3.5-35B-A3B or Qwen3.6-35B-A3B?
Qwen3.5-35B-A3B (36B parameters) is larger than Qwen3.6-35B-A3B (36B parameters), by the parameter counts their publishers report.
Which is cheaper to run, Qwen3.5-35B-A3B or Qwen3.6-35B-A3B?
At 4-bit, Qwen3.5-35B-A3B fits on 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour and Qwen3.6-35B-A3B on 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest on-demand prices the SAVRN Index lists.
