I regularly run llama3 70b unqantized on two P40s and CPU at like 7tokens/s. It's usable but not very fast.

so there is no way a 24gb and 64gb can run thing?

[–] raldone01@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

My specs because you asked:

CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) E5-2699 v3 (72) @ 3.60 GHz

ok this is a server. 48gb cards and 67gb ram? for model alone?

[–] raldone01@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Each card has 24GB so 48GB vram total. I use ollama it fills whatever vrams is available on both cards and runs the rest on the CPU cores.

What are you asking exactly?

What do you want to run? I assume you have a 24GB GPU and 64GB host RAM?

[–] sunzu@kbin.run 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)
