Can I run Qwen2.5 VL 72B Instruct on Apple M4 Max (32-core GPU)?

This one is close. The answer rests on a file size we calculated from the parameter count rather than measured. A 10% error in that size changes the verdict, so treat it as a maybe and test before you buy.

46.3 GB of weights, plus 3.3 GB for the software that runs it and the smallest conversation it can hold, comes to 49.6 GB against the 48 GB this 64 GB device leaves free.
