Can the NVIDIA H100 SXM5 80GB run StableLM-2-1.6B?

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

StableLM-2-1.6B on the NVIDIA H100 SXM5 80GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1050k 743.6-886.2 t/s ~8.9-10.6 (slow)
Q8 yes 1075k 1487.2-1772.4 t/s ~17.8-21.2 (slow)
Q4 yes 1086k 2655.6-3164.9 t/s ~31.7-37.8 (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.

Can the NVIDIA H100 SXM5 80GB run StableLM-2-1.6B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~2655.6-3164.9 tok/s and fits up to 1086k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~31.7-37.8 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 1086k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
