Can the NVIDIA B200 run NVIDIA-Nemotron-Nano-12B-v2?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
NVIDIA-Nemotron-Nano-12B-v2 on the NVIDIA B200
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 922k | 243.3-290 t/s | ~1.2-1.5 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 996k | 486.7-580 t/s | ~2.4-2.9 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 1028k | 869-1035.7 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 B200 run NVIDIA-Nemotron-Nano-12B-v2?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~869-1035.7 tok/s and fits up to 1028k 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?▶
At Q4, up to about 1028k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
