Can the NVIDIA B200 run MiniCPM-1.2B?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
MiniCPM-1.2B on the NVIDIA B200
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 2634k | 2340.8-2789.7 t/s | ~11.7-13.9 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 2653k | 4681.6-5579.4 t/s | ~23.4-27.9 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 2662k | 8360-9963.2 t/s | ~41.8-49.8 (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 MiniCPM-1.2B?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~8360-9963.2 tok/s and fits up to 2662k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~41.8-49.8 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 2662k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
