Can the NVIDIA H200 run Tri-21B?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Tri-21B on the NVIDIA H200
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 331k | 84.5-100.7 t/s | ~0.7-0.8 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 410k | 169-201.4 t/s | ~1.4-1.7 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 445k | 301.8-359.7 t/s | ~2.5-3 (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 Tri-21B?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~301.8-359.7 tok/s and fits up to 445k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~2.5-3 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 445k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
