Can Ryzen AI Max+ 395 mini PC / Framework Desktop · 64 GB run Step 5 Preview 600B-A27B?
64 GB unified · 256 GB/s memory bandwidth · Step 5 Preview 600B-A27B has 600B parameters (27B active per token).
Short answer
No. This combination isn't supported.
Step 5 Preview 600B-A27B is not published in a format llama.cpp (llama-server) can load (GGUF).
The same applies to every workload we rate (chat, coding questions, coding in a repository, agentic coding and long documents): they all need at least as much memory as chat.
