Can the NVIDIA A100 PCIe 80GB run MADLAD-400 10B?

Yes โ€” here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.

MADLAD-400 10B on the NVIDIA A100 PCIe 80GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 309k 66-78.7 t/s ~1.4-1.6 (slow)
Q8 yes 375k 132-157.3 t/s ~2.7-3.3 (slow)
Q4 yes 403k 235.7-280.9 t/s ~4.9-5.8 (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 NVIDIA A100 PCIe 80GB run MADLAD-400 10B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~235.7-280.9 tok/s and fits up to 403k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~4.9-5.8 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 403k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
