Can the NVIDIA A100 PCIe 80GB run Mistral NeMo?

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

Mistral NeMo on the NVIDIA A100 PCIe 80GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 294k 58.9-70.1 t/s ~1.2-1.5 (slow)
Q8 yes 367k 117.7-140.3 t/s ~2.4-2.9 (slow)
Q4 yes 399k 210.2-250.5 t/s ~4.3-5.2 (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 Mistral NeMo?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~210.2-250.5 tok/s and fits up to 399k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~4.3-5.2 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 399k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
