GLM-5.3-Flash (321B MoE) running locally on AMD: RX 7900 XT, R9700, Strix ▎ Halo

I never expected to run a 321B model at home, so I jumped on this as soon as I saw it last night.
Project Maya:

(github.com/mw00/project-maya) runs GLM-5.3-Flash by keeping the hot experts in VRAM, the next ones in RAM, and the rest on NVMe. It was NVIDIA-only. So I ported it to Linux/ROCm, and the author merged it into v1.0.11 as experimental AMD support.

Maya-S quant, 8K context, ROCm 7.2, 4K-token prompts, greedy:

| Hardware | Prefill | Decode |

| RX 7900 XT 20 GB | ~415 tok/s | ~15 tok/s |

| Radeon AI PRO R9700 32 GB | ~500 tok/s | ~20 tok/s |

| Strix Halo (Ryzen AI Max+ 395, 8060S, 128 GB) | ~210 tok/s | ~18 tok/s |

| R9700 + 7900 XT (layer split + MTP drafting) | ~490 tok/s | ~34 tok/s |

The dGPU box has 192 GB of RAM, so most experts live in VRAM or pinned RAM.

With less RAM, more comes from the SSD and decode drops.

Ox Alpha is GLM

Just like everyone said, Ox Alpha is not a Google model. Also in case you need to hear it, Google abandoned 3.5 pro. It doesn't mean they're done, it doesn't mean they'll never again release a good model but it does mean it's silly to ignore all evidence otherwise.
