Compared with other hardware
Each at the highest precision it runs. Click one for details.
Smallest that runs it (Q4_K_M, 8K): no single listed machine; about 6 × 80 GB GPUs.
Run commands
The maker publishes no files at this precision. Choose its native precision or one of its own builds, or quantise it yourself with llama.cpp.
Memory to fine-tune
Batch 1, 2,048-token sequences, gradient checkpointing; LoRA and QLoRA train rank-16 adapters on the attention projections.
