# Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B-Instruct

<Note>
  This page focuses on optimal configuration and benchmark results for Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B-Instruct on the Ascend NPU. For environment setup, model weight download, feature configuration, and deployment instructions, etc., see the [Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B-Instruct Model Tutorial](/docs/hardware-platforms/ascend-npus/model-tutorials/qwen3_next_80b_a3b_instruct).

  On A3 each card has 2 dies, so `--tp-size` is twice the card count; see [Ascend NPU Reference](/docs/hardware-platforms/ascend-npus/ascend_npu_reference#hardware) for details.
