I've gotten 35B-A3B running on a 4GB GPU with 16GB of RAM, the 6B actives should easily fit onto an 8GB card, but yeah, you might could get away with just 64GB of memory, maybe even just 32 if quantized small enough

    That’s not how MoE models work. There are many “expert’ models and there is a static router model (dense) which determines which “expert” models to route the tokens through. What you want at a minimum is the dense portion of the model to be on VRAM and all of the weights to be in RAM/VRAM for best performance.
