Qwen reports a 125B MoE language core with 6B activated, plus 51B n-gram embeddings and 4B MTP. The 180B total sums those components; 6B is the activated language-core count, not all lookup/draft work. Public weights use the custom Qwen Community License 1.0. This benchmark uses the ISTA-DASLab GSQ-RCO IQ3_S GGUF through Strata 0.1.39 on a local RTX 3090, with vision disabled and a 65,536-token runtime context. The compression is a quantized version of the exact public checkpoint, not the managed Qwen3.8-Flash API model.
