Can the Intel Gaudi 3 run Intern-S2-Preview?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Intern-S2-Preview on the Intel Gaudi 3
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 176k | 30.7-38.1 t/s | ~0.3-0.4 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 310k | 61.3-76.1 t/s | ~0.7-0.8 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 369k | 109.5-135.9 t/s | ~1.2-1.5 (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 Intel Gaudi 3 run Intern-S2-Preview?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~109.5-135.9 tok/s and fits up to 369k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~1.2-1.5 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 369k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
