No
No — GLM-5 / GLM-5.1 does not fit in Framework Desktop (Ryzen AI Max+ 395, 128 GB). Even at Q2_K it needs about 250.6 GB against 128 GB usable, a shortfall of roughly 122.6 GB.

What to watch out for
- This model does not publish its full attention configuration, so the KV-cache share of these figures is inferred from its parameter count rather than computed exactly.
- Memory on this machine is not upgradeable, so the configuration you buy is the ceiling for every model you will ever run on it.
Framework Desktop 128 GB limitations
- Memory is soldered LPDDR5X — unusually for Framework, this is the one component that cannot be upgraded.
- ROCm/Vulkan support for Strix Halo is younger than CUDA; check your runtime supports it before buying.
Recommended setup
Ollama or llama.cpp (CUDA/ROCm) — vLLM if you need concurrent serving
How these numbers are calculated
- Memory need = quantized weights + KV cache at 8,192 tokens (f16) + 0.8 GB runtime overhead.
- 128 GB unified memory at 256 GB/s, shared between CPU and GPU.
- Throughput is a memory-bandwidth roofline estimate, not a measurement. It is labelled "estimated" everywhere it appears.
- KV cache is inferred from the parameter count because this model does not publish its full attention configuration.
