🌟 Qwen3.6-27B NVFP4 Quantization by NeuralNet 🧠🤖
This is an NVFP4-quantized version of Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B, optimized for deployment on NVIDIA Blackwell architecture GPUs using vLLM.
[!IMPORTANT]
NVFP4 quantization requires NVIDIA Blackwell architecture (GB200, RTX 5000 series, etc.). This format is not compatible with Ampere, Ada Lovelace, or Hopper GPUs. If you are running on an older GPU, please use a different quantization format.

⚡ Deployment with vLLM
This quantized model is intended to be served using vLLM (vllm>=0.9.0 recommended).

💬 Chat API Usage
Once you deploy your model using vLLM you can chat qwith Qwen3.6 with chat template compatible with OpenAI-format APIs. Thinking mode is enabled by default.
Thinking Mode (Default)
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(base_url="http://localhost:18000/v1", api_key="EMPTY")
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "Your message here"}]
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="NeuralNet-Hub/Qwen3.6-27B-NVFP4",
messages=messages,
max_tokens=32768,
temperature=1.0,
top_p=0.95,
extra_body={"top_k": 20},
)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)
Non-Thinking (Instruct) Mode
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="NeuralNet-Hub/Qwen3.6-27B-NVFP4",
messages=messages,
max_tokens=8192,
temperature=0.7,
top_p=0.8,
presence_penalty=1.5,
extra_body={
"top_k": 20,
"chat_template_kwargs": {"enable_thinking": False},
},
)
messages = [
{
"role": "user",
"content": [
{"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "https://example.com/image.jpg"}},
{"type": "text", "text": "Describe this image in detail."}
]
}
]
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="NeuralNet-Hub/Qwen3.6-27B-NVFP4",
messages=messages,
max_tokens=32768,
temperature=1.0,
top_p=0.95,
extra_body={"top_k": 20},
)
⚙️ Recommended Sampling Parameters
Table with columns: Mode, temperature, top_p, top_k, presence_penalty| Mode | temperature | top_p | top_k | presence_penalty |
|---|
| Thinking — general tasks | 1.0 | 0.95 | 20 | 0.0 |
| Thinking — precise coding | 0.6 | 0.95 | 20 | 0.0 |
| Instruct (non-thinking) | 0.7 | 0.80 | 20 | 1.5 |
🔧 Hardware Requirements
Table with columns: Component, Requirement| Component | Requirement |
|---|
| GPU Architecture | NVIDIA Blackwell (sm_100+) |
| VRAM | 24 GB+ recommended |
| CUDA | 12.8+ |
| vLLM | 0.9.0+ |
[!WARNING]
NVFP4 is exclusively supported on NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs. Attempting to run this model on Ampere (A100), Ada Lovelace (RTX 4000), or Hopper (H100) will fail. For those architectures, use the original BF16 model or an AWQ/GPTQ quantized variant.
