RAM figures are working-set recommendations: when GPU memory is short, the runtime spills to CPU and system memory instead of failing.
Install it
Pair a computer with idapt and install Qwen3.5 35B A3B from the model page: the local engine bootstraps itself, pulls the build you pick, and streams progress. Or pull it directly:
ollama pull qwen3.5:35bFrequently asked
How much RAM do I need to run Qwen3.5 35B A3B locally?
The smallest Qwen3.5 35B A3B build runs with about 32 GB of system RAM; the largest needs 32 GB. RAM is the binding requirement: when GPU memory is short, the runtime spills to CPU and system memory instead of failing.
Which quantization of Qwen3.5 35B A3B should I pick?
Start with the default 35b build: a 24 GB download that wants about 32 GB of RAM. Smaller quantizations shrink the download and memory needs at some cost in output quality; larger ones do the reverse.
Do I need a GPU to run Qwen3.5 35B A3B?
No. A GPU with enough VRAM makes generation faster, but Qwen3.5 35B A3B runs on CPU and system RAM alone. Whether a build fits is decided by RAM; the GPU only changes speed.
How big is the Qwen3.5 35B A3B download?
About 24 GB for the single available build.
Can idapt install Qwen3.5 35B A3B for me?
Yes. Pair a computer with idapt and install Qwen3.5 35B A3B from this page: the local engine bootstraps itself, pulls the build you pick (ollama pull qwen3.5), and streams download progress. Local runs are not billed.
