Can the NVIDIA H100 PCIe 80GB run Gemma 2B?

Yes โ€” here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.

Gemma 2B on the NVIDIA H100 PCIe 80GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1024k 291.3-347.1 t/s ~5.8-6.9 (slow)
Q8 yes 1062k 582.5-694.2 t/s ~11.7-13.9 (slow)
Q4 yes 1079k 1040.2-1239.7 t/s ~20.8-24.8 (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 H100 PCIe 80GB run Gemma 2B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~1040.2-1239.7 tok/s and fits up to 1079k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~20.8-24.8 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 1079k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
