Rockchip RK3576 / Phi-3 3.8B

Can a Rockchip RK3576 run Phi-3 3.8B?

Yes, usable but slower than reading speed. Measured generation speed: 3.74–6.58 tok/s across 3 public runs.

Rule of thumb: 10+ tok/s feels like a chat; 4–10 is usable for assistants and automations; under 4 is batch-job territory. Speeds depend on quantization, runtime, context length and cooling. Check each source.
