Can the AMD Instinct MI300X 192GB run gpt-sw3-40b?
Yes โ here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
gpt-sw3-40b on the AMD Instinct MI300X 192GB
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 290k | 41.7-51 t/s | ~0.3-0.4 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 412k | 83.5-102 t/s | ~0.6-0.8 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 466k | 149.1-182.2 t/s | ~1.1-1.4 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
