Learn about MoE models and also just look at the benchmarks of the two models. For example https://artificialanalysis.ai/models/comparisons/qwen3-6-27b-vs-qwen3-6-35b-a3b https://artificialanalysis.ai/models/comparisons/qwen3-6-27b... clearly shows both the intelligence and speed differences. It's a bit degenerate but you can get some useful info from e.g. the /r/localllama subreddit
