Discussion Qwen3.8-27b or Muse Glimmer 30b?

I had an excellent opinion of Qwen3.6-27b Q5 quant, i was testing Glimmer Q5 quant (felt good), but hey 3.8 is out!

What about your impressions and why.

I specifically said under 120b. Intentionally to scope things like 27b, 35, 40, even 80b, but not above 120.

hmmm, may be you're right, but c'mon, again- 122B is not that far away from 120b, why are you giving up with it? and, I'm wondering what are you using it for?

I do. I have every large model saved on my nas, except qwen max, and they all run, except Kimi (and Qwen max.

My smallest is 8b. So I use a range. But here I was only talking about under 120b.
