Can the NVIDIA B200 run LLaVA-NeXT-34B (LLaVA-1.6)?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
LLaVA-NeXT-34B (LLaVA-1.6) on the NVIDIA B200
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 403k | 84-100.1 t/s | ~0.4-0.5 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 536k | 168.1-200.3 t/s | ~0.8-1 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 594k | 300.1-357.7 t/s | ~1.5-1.8 (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 B200 run LLaVA-NeXT-34B (LLaVA-1.6)?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~300.1-357.7 tok/s and fits up to 594k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~1.5-1.8 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 594k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
