QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1341k 278.1-339.9 t/s ~0.6-0.7 (slow)
Q8 yes 1426k 556.2-679.8 t/s ~1.1-1.4 (slow)
Q4 yes 1463k 993.2-1214 t/s ~2-2.5 (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.

FAQ

Can the AMD Instinct MI455X run Codestral?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~993.2-1214 tok/s and fits up to 1463k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~2-2.5 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 1463k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
