Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Uncensored — ROCmFP4 STRIX\_LEAN imatrix GGUF — AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 / gfx1151

The importance-matrix-calibrated STRIX\_LEAN build — the highest-quality tier in this

family. STRIX\_LEAN already spends more bits than FAST (Q5 token embeddings and PLE, half the

attention at higher precision); importance-weighted quantization on top gives it the **lowest

perplexity of any tier here.**

⚠️ Research artifact. Refusal behaviour has been removed. This does not add capability — it

removes guardrails. Use it deliberately, in a context where that is appropriate, and own the output.

Measured quality — held-out WikiText-2 raw, -c 512

| build | PPL |

|---|---|

| plain FAST (no imatrix) — repo | 5.3465 ± 0.034 |

| FAST imatrix — repo | 5.0337 ± 0.031 |

| this — STRIX\_LEAN imatrix | 4.9865 ± 0.031 |

4.9865 is the lowest perplexity across the whole family — −6.7% vs plain FAST, and −0.9% below

the FAST imatrix tier at the same calibration. That gap over FAST is the richer STRIX\_LEAN recipe

(higher-precision embeddings/PLE) plus the imatrix weighting.

> Honesty note: I do not publish a "plain STRIX\_LEAN vs imatrix STRIX\_LEAN" number, because

> the source BF16 was reclaimed after the build and I can't re-quantize a non-imatrix STRIX\_LEAN

> for a clean same-recipe delta. The clean isolated imatrix effect (same recipe, imatrix on/off) is

> the FAST tier's −5.9%; expect STRIX\_LEAN's isolated imatrix gain to be in the same range.

> imatrix moves quality, not speed — decode t/s is unchanged.

• Calibration corpus: bartowski

calibration_datav3.

• ⚠️ imatrix computed on the 4-bit model (the 51.2B PLE + 128 GB GTT ceiling blocks a BF16

forward pass on Strix Halo).

Speculative decoding (MTP)

draft-mtp works on this arch once you apply qwen4exp-mtp-graph.patch

(bundled) — it fixes the graph combiner that otherwise held acceptance near 0.36. Pair with the

stock Flash-Next MTP head from

kingjones777/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-MTP-Heads-GGUF.

Measured on the FAST tier with the fixed graph: acceptance 0.94 (+27.7% tok/s), at **short

context (-c 2048) with the Q8_0** head (mtp-Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Q8_0.gguf, in the heads repo). STRIX\_LEAN

uses the same graph, but its own MTP speed has not been measured, and the published heads (Q6_K,

Q4) were not benchmarked. The head is stock Flash-Next — it only proposes drafts, the main model

verifies every token, so it never alters this model's output.

llama-server -m Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Uncensored-Q4_0-ROCmFP4-STRIX_LEAN-imatrix-00001-of-00003.gguf \
  -md mtp-Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Q8_0.gguf --spec-type draft-mtp \
  --spec-draft-n-min 0 --spec-draft-n-max 1 --n-gpu-layers-draft 99 \
  -ngl 999 -fa on -np 1 -c 32768 --jinja

With the bundled checkpoint fix applied this is verified to 128K (see below); raise -c to suit

your context. Without that patch, keep speculative decoding at ≤32K.

⚠️ Updated 2026-09-17 — re-download if you pulled it earlier. qwen4exp-mtp-graph.patch now

carries the models.h and llama-model.cpp hunks it needs. The previous version applied cleanly but

failed to compile ('graph_mtp' was not declared in this scope). The bundled patch matches the

build steps on this card; for the other build path use qwen4exp-mtp-graph-fork.patch (if you build from a kingjones30/ROCmFPX clone), also bundled here.

Measured plain vs draft-mtp — median of 3 per cell, one binary, greedy, cache_prompt:false,

256 generated tokens, -c 2048, Q8_0 head, Uncensored STRIX_LEAN-imatrix weights, gfx1151 / ROCm 7.2.4

(2026-09-17):

| workload | plain | --spec-draft-n-max 4 | --spec-draft-n-max 1 |

|---|---|---|---|

| reasoning | 23.91 | 30.94 (+29%, acc 0.680) | 31.94 (+34%, acc 0.945) |

| JSON output | 23.99 | 28.31 (+18%, acc 0.597) | 27.24 (+14%, acc 0.758) |

| code | 24.09 | 21.56 (−10%, acc 0.422) | 26.80 (+11%, acc 0.711) |

| long-document summary | 23.80 | 20.36 (−14%, acc 0.352) | 24.14 (+1%, acc 0.641) |

⭐ Use --spec-draft-n-max 1. It did not lose a single workload here, and it wins most where the

next token is predictable. n-max 4 pays for four draft forward passes per step, so it only wins when

acceptance is high (reasoning, JSON) and is a genuine loss on code and long-document work. MTP also

costs prefill speed, because the draft head processes the prompt too. The older +27.7% figure came

from one reasoning-shaped prompt — it holds for that shape, not universally, so measure your own.

> ### ✅ Depth: draft-mtp is fixed and measured (2026-09-17)

>

> With it applied, --spec-type draft-mtp ran clean from 2K to 128K on gfx1151: 8 depth rungs,

> 864 context-checkpoint restores (2 of them prompt-cache rollbacks at 64K), 0 GPU faults,

> coherent output at every depth. Measured 2026-09-17 on Ryzen AI MAX+ 395 / ROCm 7.2.4 with the

> Uncensored STRIX_LEAN-imatrix weights + mtp-Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Q8_0.gguf, -c 262144,

> --spec-draft-n-max 4, default context checkpoints. That 128K run used my own fork tree; the exact

> build steps on this card were verified to 16K.

>

> ⚠️ Still open: --spec-type ngram-mod at ≥64K has not been retested with the patch — the

> original field report (…-STRIX-GGUF#6, thanks

> @liusecret) was ngram-mod, so keep -ctxcp 0 -cpent -1 when you

> use it. And do not use speculative decoding of any kind on Vulkan/gfx1151 — acceptance collapses to 0.

>

> A speculative replay stalled warning on ~2% of restores is expected and harmless: that is the

> server's livelock guard dropping one draft and decoding that token normally.

Speed — Ryzen AI MAX+ 395, gfx1151, ROCm 7.2.4, full offload

Decode speed is the same as the plain STRIX\_LEAN build (same layout): 23.20 tok/s gen /

377.8 tok/s prompt / 63.3 GiB GTT, one fixed 6,963-token prompt, cache_prompt:false, median

of 4. Native max context 262,144 on a 128 GB box.

Usage

llama-server \
  --model Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Uncensored-Q4_0-ROCmFP4-STRIX_LEAN-imatrix-00001-of-00003.gguf \
  --mmproj mmproj-Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Uncensored-BF16.gguf \

  --n-gpu-layers 999 --flash-attn on --fit off \
  --ctx-size 131072 --threads 16 --jinja

Do not use --no-mmap (and do not use -dio). The PLE table streams from the file through the

page cache; forcing it into anonymous memory gets the process OOM-killed with nothing in the log.

Reproduction

quantize: llama-quantize --imatrix unc.imatrix <BF16> <out> Q4_0_ROCMFP4_STRIX_LEAN 16
ppl     : llama-perplexity -m <this> -f wiki.test.raw -ngl 999 -fa on -dev ROCm0 -c 512   (NO -dio)

A number without its binary is a rumour — every figure above is measured on the fork runtime above.
