usually, running a 235b model = datacenter, several h100s, tens of thousands of dollars. parallax changes this.
๐พ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐-๐๐๐๐ฏ-๐ถ๐ป๐๐ has been officially added to parallax. this means the model can be run distributedly, across multiple custom devices or via the global parallax network.

qwen3-235b-a22b outperforms deepseek-r1 and o1 on arena-hard and both aime math benchmarks. its the current flagship open-source model.
architectural trick: 235b is the total number of parameters, but only 22b are active per token. the moe architecture makes the model faster than its dense counterparts with the same characteristics.

the qwen3-235b is impossible on any consumer gpu: even in int4, you need ~117gb of vram. two h100s in fp8 give 160gb, still not enough. at least four h100s with int4 or eight with fp8.

parallax shards the model across multiple nodes. instead of one machine with 4 h100s, it uses several regular gpus around the world via latticas p2p. each node maintains its own shard and requests go through parallax swarm.
installation:
| pip install parallax-ai | โ select qwen3-235b-int4 โ parallax automatically finds nodes and distributes the model.
