LLM memory estimates for this GPU

These models have an estimated inference footprint within 24 GB at one or more precisions. The scenario uses 4,096 tokens, batch 1, a 16-bit KV cache and 20% runtime headroom. A memory fit does not establish speed or software compatibility.

Models that need more than one A30

• Qwen2.5 72B at 16-bit needs about 176 GB with the same context and headroom, so at least 8 cards. No provider we track publishes a A30 node of that size today. At 8 or 4 bit it needs less; the model page recalculates.
• DeepSeek R1 Distill Llama 70B at 16-bit needs about 171 GB with the same context and headroom, so at least 8 cards. No provider we track publishes a A30 node of that size today. At 8 or 4 bit it needs less; the model page recalculates.
• Mixtral 8x7B v0.1 at 16-bit needs about 113 GB with the same context and headroom, so at least 5 cards. No provider we track publishes a A30 node of that size today. At 8 or 4 bit it needs less; the model page recalculates.

When to choose the A30, and what to pick instead

Start from memory: your model, its context and your batch must fit in 24 GB (the model-fit table above estimates it). Then the A30 is the right card unless one of these fits your job better.

• Pick the A100 (40 GB, from $0.89/hr) when the model or its cache does not fit in 24 GB, or finishing sooner is worth paying more: it has 1.9 times the A30's 16-bit compute.
