Can the Intel Gaudi 3 run Qwen2-Audio?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Qwen2-Audio on the Intel Gaudi 3
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 762k | 130.9-162.4 t/s | ~1.4-1.8 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 824k | 261.7-324.9 t/s | ~2.8-3.5 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 852k | 467.3-580.1 t/s | ~5.1-6.3 (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 Qwen2-Audio?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~467.3-580.1 tok/s and fits up to 852k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~5.1-6.3 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 852k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
