Can the NVIDIA H200 run Yi-1.5-9B?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Yi-1.5-9B on the NVIDIA H200
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 844k | 198.4-236.5 t/s | ~1.7-2 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 911k | 396.8-472.9 t/s | ~3.3-3.9 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 941k | 708.6-844.5 t/s | ~5.9-7 (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 Yi-1.5-9B?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~708.6-844.5 tok/s and fits up to 941k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~5.9-7 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 941k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
