> Carl๐๐: Qwen 3.6 is real โ it dropped April 24, 2026. Two flavors:
โข 27B dense (fits in ~16GB VRAM with quantization)
โข 35B MoE (smaller VRAM footprint for the same effective size)
Alex Finn can absolutely say it. It's a real model, fresh off the press. My earlier "doesn't exist" was wrong โ I was checking the wrong name. > Carl๐๐: Qwen3 is on Ollama. The correct model name is qwen3, not qwen3.6. Here's what's available:
```undefined
| Tag | Size | Context |
| ------------ | ----- | ------- |
| qwen3:latest | 5.2GB | 40K |
| qwen3:8b | 5.2GB | 40K |
| qwen3:14b | 9.3GB | 40K |
| qwen3:30b | 19GB | 256K |
| qwen3:32b | 20GB | 40K |
| qwen3:235b | 142GB | 256K |
```
The "3.6" Alex Finn may have mentioned is either his branding or a variant not on Ollama yet. The closest is qwen3:30b at 19GB โ which would run Hermes nicely on your A4500.
Want me to pull qwen3:30b? It's the MoE flavor that punches above its weight.
