Three Reddit posts popped up around the same time, all claiming consumer hardware can run Qwen3.6 35B-A3B. If a 35B MoE model actually fits on an RTX 4060 with 8GB VRAM, the active parameter count must be tiny — the A3B naming suggests around 3B active parameters, same pattern as Qwen2.5's 32B-A3B variant. But I'd hold off celebrating. Reddit blocked the article body with a 403, so we only have titles. One mentions an RTX 3080 10GB + 32GB DDR5 setup, another says "what worked, what didn't" on a laptop RTX 4060, a third calls it a "zero to one moment." No token speeds, no quantization details, no power draw numbers. What's real: at least three people independently got it running. What's missing: whether this is usable speed or just technically possible. Wait for the original posts to become accessible or for someone to share actual benchmarks.
