Can the NVIDIA H200 run Llama 3.2 11B?

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

Llama 3.2 11B on the NVIDIA H200

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 653k 165.3-197 t/s ~1.4-1.6 (slow)
Q8 yes 718k 330.6-394 t/s ~2.8-3.3 (slow)
Q4 yes 746k 590.3-703.5 t/s ~4.9-5.9 (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 Llama 3.2 11B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~590.3-703.5 tok/s and fits up to 746k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~4.9-5.9 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 746k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
