What GPU do you need to run Xing4.0-29B-A4B?

A new Radeon RX 7900 XTX ($1,350). It is the cheapest priced graphics card that holds Xing4.0-29B-A4B (about 21.6 GB at Q4) with room for about 62K tokens of context (117K with 8-bit KV cache), at about 170 tok/s estimate; that is the card price only, and it requires a separate compatible PC. 54 of the 157 GPUs and systems we track fit it.

31.22B parameters, 4B active (mixture-of-experts) (Hugging Face, accessed 2026-11-13). Q4_K_M GGUF: 20.06 GB (source). Architecture config (Hugging Face config.json): 40 attention layers caching one 576-wide compressed latent (MLA), so about 45 KB of FP16 KV cache per token of context (how we estimate context).

China Telecom's agentic mixture-of-experts model, from its XingChen AGI team (the Xing series was formerly TeleChat): 29B total and 4B active per the card, with multi-head latent attention (MLA) and one MTP layer. The checkpoint holds 31.2B parameters; the card's 29B is its own rounding or count. It is new on this site because mainline llama.cpp added support on Nov 5, 2026, and tagged release v1.0.0 includes it. The official GGUF repo has no Q4_K_M, so the size is bartowski's Q4_K_M (XingChen-AGI_Xing4.0-29B-A4B-Q4_K_M.gguf, 20,056,603,584 bytes); every size is in the table below. Context is the card's 256K native window. Release date is the Hugging Face repo creation date.

What we checked

Checked Nov 13, 2026. Official is the maker or the weight files. A vendor claim is that project's own documentation. A community claim is someone else's upload. Our check is a file or search we read. Unknown means we have no source, so it is not estimated. None of these rows is a speed we measured.

OfficialModel cardThe card says the model was "developed by China Telecom Artificial Intelligence Technology Co., Ltd." (the Xing series was formerly TeleChat) and gives "29B total / 4B active" and a 256K native context, "extensible to 512K". config.json (model_type xing4_0): 40 layers with MLA (kv_lora_rank 512, qk_rope_head_dim 64), 64 routed experts with 4 per token plus 1 shared expert, the first 2 layers dense, 1 MTP (nextn) layer, and mHC (hc_mult 4). Hugging Face's safetensors total is 31,215,031,088 parameters (31,215,028,592 BF16 and 2,496 F32). The card's 29B is its own rounding or count; the checkpoint holds 31.2B.

Our checkllama.cppPull request #31589, "Add support for the xing4_0", merged on 2026-11-05 (build b12174 and later), and it is in tagged release v1.0.0 (2026-11-13). The maker's card, as of 2026-11-10, says "Stock build b12174+ on CPU / CUDA" and does not mention Metal or a Mac. We have not verified it on a Mac, and we have not checked Ollama or LM Studio. A loader is not a confirmed setup or a speed on this site.llama.cpp PR #31589, checked Nov 13, 2026
Vendor claimMTP draftingThe checkpoint has 1 MTP layer, and the GGUFs keep it, so llama.cpp can draft tokens with --spec-type draft-mtp. That is speculative decoding, not a speed figure, and the estimates on this page do not assume it.Model card, checked Nov 13, 2026
Vendor claimSGLang and vLLMSGLang mainline has supported it since 2026-11-05 (#39793), and vLLM runs it through an official out-of-tree plugin. Those are server setups; we have not run either.Model card, checked Nov 13, 2026
Vendor claimBenchmark scores (XingChen's)The card reports SWE-bench Verified 75.00 and Terminal-Bench 2.1 57.50. These are XingChen's own reported scores, not checked by us.Model card, checked Nov 13, 2026

GGUF files and sizes

Exact sizes from Hugging Face, accessed 2026-11-13. The fit and context tables on this page use the Q4_K_M file (20.06 GB); a smaller file needs less memory by the difference. VRAM needed is the file + the same headroom.

Speed calculator

estimate

Estimate = bandwidth ÷ GB read per token (the model's listed GGUF file: Q4_K_M for most models, otherwise the quant named in the list; scaled by active/total parameters for MoE), scaled by a per-platform efficiency and fixed per-token costs calibrated to 45 measured llama.cpp benchmarks (2025–26). Fit = file size + 1.5 GB headroom ≤ total VRAM (on Macs, the part of unified memory macOS lets the GPU use by default), and room for at least 4K tokens of context with an 8-bit KV cache. For a model with no KV cache data, only the file and headroom are checked, so a fit says nothing about context. Multi-GPU: VRAM adds, speed stays one card's (a layer split runs the cards in turn); max context uses the total. Speed is for short context. Max context = what is left after the file and a 1 GB runtime reserve ÷ KV cache bytes per token, default FP16 and 8-bit (q8_0) cache. How speed works · how context works
