Speeds are estimates for a single request — one conversation at a time — calculated from memory bandwidth, model size and quantisation. Real throughput varies with the inference runtime and its version. Figures published by hardware vendors measure many simultaneous requests and are much higher.

The extremes

The ten fastest GPUs that run H-optimus-0

Ranked by estimated tokens per second, newest card first where speeds tie. Because generation is bound by memory bandwidth, this ordering follows bandwidth rather than any gaming benchmark.

The smallest GPUs that still run H-optimus-0

The cheapest route in, by memory capacity. A tight fit runs the model but leaves nothing spare for a longer conversation.

What the numbers mean

Hardware requirements in practice

Minimum card

Tesla C1080

Memory needed

1.9 GB

Fastest

3,080 tok/s

H-optimus-0 is small enough at 1.1B parameters that hardware is rarely the obstacle — 818 of the cards we track can run it, including cards several years old.

The entry point is the Tesla C1080: 4 GB of memory, Q8_0 compression, roughly 33.5 tokens per second.

At the other end, a B200 generates roughly 3,080 tokens per second on it, on the strength of 8,000 GB/s of memory bandwidth.

What this model is

H-optimus-0 was published by its authors, in August 2024.

It works in Vision, Biology, Medicine.

Because its weights were released, nothing about running it depends on a provider staying available — it is yours once downloaded.

What decides the speed

Across every card that can run it, the middle of the range is about 86.5 tokens per second, and 799 of them clear the ten tokens per second that roughly matches reading speed.

It is a dense model, so every parameter is read for every token produced. That makes speed track memory bandwidth almost exactly — a card with twice the bandwidth generates roughly twice as fast.

Its internal architecture is not on file, so memory is approximated from the parameter count and marked accordingly. Expect the real figure to differ, more so at long context.

Step by step

How to choose a GPU for H-optimus-0

The table above has already assessed every card we hold specifications for against this model. Getting to your answer takes six steps.

01

Read the memory figure first

The table lists every card that can hold H-optimus-0 — around 1.9 GB at Q8_0. That figure, not the card's headline performance, is what decides whether it runs.
02

Match the context to your actual use

The conversation occupies memory too, and grows as it goes. Set the slider to the length you expect: at long context H-optimus-0 can slip off a card that handles short questions easily.
03

Decide how much compression you will accept

The quantisation column varies by card, because a bigger card holds a more accurate copy of H-optimus-0 — Q8_0 on the smallest card that fits. Set a floor to hold the comparison at one level.
04

Compare tokens per second, not specifications

Ranking by tokens per second for H-optimus-0 follows memory bandwidth, not core counts, which is why the B200 tops it at 3,080 tok/s.
05

Read the fit column last

The fit column separates cards that just manage H-optimus-0 from those with room to spare. Buy for the second if the context might grow.
06

Check the card from the other side

Each card page repeats this sweep for every model we hold. It answers what else the hardware is good for, beyond H-optimus-0.

Answers

H-optimus-0 — common questions

Why does the quantisation differ between cards for H-optimus-0?

Because capacity varies, so does how hard H-optimus-0 has to be squeezed — 1 distinct levels appear in the table above. Set a minimum quality to compare at one.

How accurate are these H-optimus-0 speed estimates?

Every figure is derived from memory bandwidth and model size, not benchmarked. That is why each is published as a range such as 1,848–4,928 tok/s on the B200 rather than a single number.

What GPU do I need to run H-optimus-0?

The smallest card in our catalogue that holds H-optimus-0 is the Tesla C1080, with 4 GB of memory. It runs the model at Q8_0 using about 1.9 GB, and produces roughly 33.5 tokens per second. 818 cards in total can run it.

How fast is H-optimus-0 on a GPU?

It depends on the card. The quickest we calculate is a B200 at about 3,080 tokens per second; the slowest that still runs it manages considerably less. Reading speed is around ten tokens per second, and 799 of the cards that can run H-optimus-0 clear that.

How much VRAM does H-optimus-0 need?

About 1.9 GB at Q8_0 compression, which is what the smallest card that runs it uses. Less compression needs more: the figures in the memory column above are recalculated for each card, because each one holds the least-compressed version it can.

Can I run H-optimus-0 on a 8 GB GPU?

Yes. A CMP 170HX 8 GB with 8 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 1.9 GB and generating roughly 574 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

Can I run H-optimus-0 on a 12 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 3080 Ti with 12 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 1.9 GB and generating roughly 351 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

Can I run H-optimus-0 on a 16 GB GPU?

Yes. A Tesla V100 SXM2 16 GB with 16 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 1.9 GB and generating roughly 435 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

Can I run H-optimus-0 on a 24 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 5090 D V2 with 24 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 1.9 GB and generating roughly 516 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

Is H-optimus-0 open source?

Its weights are published, so H-optimus-0 can be downloaded and run on your own hardware. Note that open weights is not the same as open source in the full sense — it says nothing about the training data, the training code, or the commercial terms attached.

How many parameters does H-optimus-0 have?

H-optimus-0 has 1.1B parameters. That figure is the total, and it is what decides how much memory the model needs — roughly half a gigabyte per billion at the compression most people use.

When was H-optimus-0 released?

H-optimus-0 was published in August 2024. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

What is H-optimus-0 used for?

H-optimus-0 works in Vision, Biology, Medicine. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.

Where can I download H-optimus-0?

The weights for H-optimus-0 are published, though we do not hold a repository link for it. This site calculates hardware requirements rather than hosting model files.

Can I run H-optimus-0 if it does not fit in my GPU?

Partly. Layers that do not fit sit in system memory and run at a fraction of the speed, so a mostly-offloaded H-optimus-0 is rarely worth using. Every figure here assumes the whole model is on the card.

Would two GPUs run H-optimus-0 faster?

Two cards buy memory rather than speed. That matters for H-optimus-0 only if one card cannot hold it — 818 can, so a second adds little.
