Hardware Requirements
For optimal performance, the following hardware specifications are recommended as baselines for hosting these models. Hosting requirements may vary depending model to model, so we recommend checking model vendor documentation as well:
- CPU: Minimum 8 cores (16 threads recommended).
- RAM: At least 32 GB (64 GB or more recommended for larger models).
-
GPU:
- Minimum: 2x NVIDIA A100 or equivalent for optimal inference performance.
- Note: For running Mixtral 8x22B and Mixtral 8x22B-it, it is recommended to use 8x NVIDIA A100 GPUs.
- Storage: SSD with sufficient space for model weights and data.
