Can the NVIDIA B200 run HiDream-I1?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
HiDream-I1 on the NVIDIA B200
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 531k | 162.2-193.3 t/s | ~0.8-1 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 599k | 324.4-386.7 t/s | ~1.6-1.9 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 630k | 579.4-690.5 t/s | ~2.9-3.5 (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 NVIDIA B200 run HiDream-I1?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~579.4-690.5 tok/s and fits up to 630k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~2.9-3.5 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 630k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
