Speeds are estimates for a single request — one conversation at a time — calculated from memory bandwidth, model size and quantisation. Real throughput varies with the inference runtime and its version. Figures published by hardware vendors measure many simultaneous requests and are much higher.

APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE) reaches a parameter count of 136B. That puts it above consumer hardware, into the range where a card is bought for this purpose rather than repurposed for it. The number of cards we track that can hold it: 37.
At the low end it is handled by A100 SXM4 80 GB, with a memory capacity of 80 GB, running it at a compression of Q3_K_M and producing around 17.1 tokens per second.
The quickest result comes from H100 NVL 94 GB, generating roughly 28.3 tokens per second on the strength of a memory bandwidth of 3,940 GB/s.
About this model
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE) was published by Qilin Hesheng Network Technology Co., Ltd. (APUS), in the country recorded as China, during April 2024. The publishing organisation is categorised as industry.
It works in the domain of Multimodal, Language, and is recorded as performing the task of chat, Recommender system, Image generation, Language modeling/generation, Question answering, Mathematical reasoning, Quantitative reasoning.
The weights being open is what puts this page in the calculator rather than only in the catalogue: it is a model you can actually hold. On Hugging Face it is published under the organisation xDAN-AI.
How fast it runs, and why
Half the cards that hold it manage more than 17.1 tokens per second. Producing text faster than most people read it: 33 of them.
Every weight participates in every token here, so bandwidth is the whole story: the ranking below is effectively a ranking of memory throughput.
Memory here is estimated from size rather than computed from the architecture, which is not recorded for this model — the numbers are indicative rather than exact.
Step by step
How to choose a GPU for APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)
The table above has already assessed every card we hold specifications for against this model. Getting to your answer takes six steps.
-
01
Start from the memory column
Every card here has been checked against APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE), needing around 67.1 GB at a compression of Q3_K_M. Capacity is the gate — a card either holds it or it does not.
-
02
Match the context to your actual use
Longer conversations cost memory on top of what the weights need. Move the slider to your real working length before trusting any row for APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE).
-
03
Set a quality floor
Compression is what makes a model fit smaller cards, at some cost in accuracy, reaching a compression of Q3_K_M on the smallest card that fits. Setting a minimum quality drops the cards that only manage it by squeezing further than you would want, and holds the comparison at one level.
-
04
Rank by throughput rather than spec sheet
Sort by speed to see how cards rank for APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE). It will not match a gaming ordering, because generation is bound by memory bandwidth. The card topping the list is H100 NVL 94 GB, at 28.3 tok/s.
-
05
Look at the headroom, not just the fit
A tight fit runs, but leaves nothing spare for a longer conversation, in the case of APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE). Comfortable means you can grow the context later. That difference matters more than a few tokens per second, so buy for comfortable if you expect to.
-
06
Check the card from the other side
Every card name links to its own page, which runs the same calculation across the whole model catalogue. A card is usually bought for more than one model, so it is worth a look before buying for APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE).
Answers
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE) — common questions
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— would two GPUs run it faster?
A second card roughly doubles the memory available but not the generation rate. The number already able to run it alone: 37. So a second card is rarely the answer here.
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— why does the quantisation differ between cards?
Because capacity varies, so does how hard it has to be squeezed. The number of distinct levels in the table above: 5. Bigger cards get the more accurate version, and the quality floor above pins the comparison to one level.
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— how accurate are these speed estimates?
These are estimates with real error bars, and any of them could reasonably land anywhere in its published range depending on which runtime you use. The fastest result here: 17–45 tok/s on H100 NVL 94 GB. The same model and card vary by thirty to fifty per cent depending on the inference software and its version.
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— what GPU do I need to run it?
The smallest card in our catalogue that holds it is A100 SXM4 80 GB, with a memory capacity of 80 GB. It runs the model at a compression of Q3_K_M using about 67.1 GB, and produces roughly 17.1 tokens per second. The number of cards able to run it in total: 37.
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— how fast is it on a GPU?
It depends on the card. The quickest we calculate is H100 NVL 94 GB, at about 28.3 tokens per second; the slowest that still runs it manages considerably less. Reading speed is around ten tokens per second, and the number of cards clearing that: 33.
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— how much VRAM does it need?
It needs about 67.1 GB at a compression of Q3_K_M, which is what the smallest card that runs it uses. Less compression needs more: the figures in the memory column above are recalculated for each card, because each one holds the least-compressed version it can.
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— is it open source?
Its weights are published, so it can be downloaded and run on your own hardware. Note that open weights is not the same as open source in the full sense — it says nothing about the training data, the training code, or the commercial terms attached.
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— how many parameters does it have?
It has a parameter count of 136B. According to reports, APUS-xDAN-4.0 (MoE) is the first open source large model in China with a MoE architecture of more than 100 billion parameters, with a parameter scale of 136 billion. This is also the largest open source model in China. Among the previous large open source models in China, the largest parameter scale was Alibaba's Qianwen 72B with 72 billion parameters, with a parameter scale of 72 billion. That figure is the total, and it is what decides how much memory the model needs — roughly half a gigabyte per billion at the compression most people use.
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— who created it?
It was published by Qilin Hesheng Network Technology Co., Ltd. (APUS), based in China, an organisation categorised as industry.
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— when was it released?
It was published in April 2024. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— what is it used for?
It works in the domain of Multimodal, Language, and is recorded as handling the task of chat, Recommender system, Image generation, Language modeling/generation, Question answering, Mathematical reasoning, Quantitative reasoning. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— where can I download it?
Its weights are published on Hugging Face, under the organisation xDAN-AI. We do not host model files — this site calculates what hardware is needed to run them.
APUS-xDAN-4.0(MoE)— can I run it if it does not fit in my GPU?
Partly. Layers that do not fit sit in system memory and run at a fraction of the speed, so a mostly-offloaded model is rarely worth using. The nearest miss we calculate falls short by 18.2 GB. Every figure here assumes the whole model is resident on the card.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
