Mixtral 8x7B needs ~33.1 GB but Radeon RX 7900M 16GB only has 16.0 GB. Try a smaller quantization or lighter model.
Operating mode
Interactive favors responsiveness, while light API and scale-out lean harder on serving readiness. The fit stays the same, but the recommendation lens changes.
Current mode
Balanced
Balanced for general local use. Keeps the ranking neutral across personal and serving workflows.

Usable VRAM is the main blocker for this model.
Not enough usable memory
The model needs 33.1 GB, but this setup only exposes 16.0 GB of usable VRAM.
Add more VRAM headroom
The first useful upgrade is more dedicated VRAM so you can fit the model without shrinking context or dropping to a much lower quant.
