can it run

Can the RTX 4090 (24GB, used) run qwen2.5vl 7B?

YES

Comfortably. 24GB of memory against a 7GB working set leaves headroom for context, the OS, and anything else you're running.

~83–140 tok/s

weights 5.6GB + KV cache 0.22GB at 4k context vs ~24GB usable → full. 5.8 GB needed of 24 GB usable — headroom for context

computed roofline: 1008 GB/s × 0.46–0.76 efficiency window / 5.6GB (Q4_K_M) — bands, never points.
