Can the NVIDIA B200 run Pangu-Weather?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Pangu-Weather on the NVIDIA B200
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 2665k | 11406.3-13593.8 t/s | ~57-68 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 2669k | 22812.5-27187.5 t/s | ~114.1-135.9 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 2670k | 40736.6-48549.1 t/s | ~203.7-242.7 (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 Pangu-Weather?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~40736.6-48549.1 tok/s and fits up to 2670k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~203.7-242.7 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 2670k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
