Can the NVIDIA H200 run CausalLM 14B?

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

CausalLM 14B on the NVIDIA H200

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 603k 119.2-142 t/s ~1-1.2 (slow)
Q8 yes 693k 238.4-284.1 t/s ~2-2.4 (slow)
Q4 yes 732k 425.7-507.3 t/s ~3.5-4.2 (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 H200 run CausalLM 14B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~425.7-507.3 tok/s and fits up to 732k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~3.5-4.2 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 732k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
