Qwen3.5 comes in various sizes (including 27B), and judging by the posts on HN, /LocalLlama etc., it seems to be better at logic/reasoning/coding/tool calling compared to Gemma 4, while Gemma 4 is better at creative writing and world knowledge (basically nothing changed from the Qwen3 vs. Gemma3 era)
Does this also apply to gemma's 26B-A4B vs say Qwens 35B-A3B?
I'm not sure if I can make the 35B-A3B work with my 32GB machine
It should be easy with a Q4 (quantization to 4 bits per weight) and a smallish context.
You won't have much RAM left over though :-/.
At Q4, ~20 GiB
