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 for Elyza

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 Elyza

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

The hardware side

Minimum card

Xeon Phi 5110P

Memory needed

7.1 GB

Fastest

261 tok/s

Elyza is small enough at 13B parameters that hardware is rarely the obstacle — 509 of the cards we track can run it, including cards several years old.

At the low end, a Xeon Phi 5110P handles it — 8 GB, at Q3_K_M, for about 18.3 tokens per second.

The quickest result comes from a B200 at around 261 tokens per second — its 8,000 GB/s of bandwidth is what buys that.

Where it came from

Elyza was published by Elyza, in Japan, in December 2023. industry is the category the publisher falls under.

It works in Language, and is recorded as doing language modeling/generation, Chat.

It is derived from Llama 2-13B rather than trained from scratch, which is the usual way a specialised model is produced.

Published weights mean the model runs on your machine rather than someone else's, which is what makes the hardware question below answerable at all.

Understanding the speeds

The median result is around 21.2 tokens per second; 459 cards produce text faster than most people read it.

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.

Training and provenance

Around 2,018,000,000,000 tokens went into training it.

Step by step

How to choose a GPU for Elyza

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

01

Check what it needs before anything else

Every card here has been checked against Elyza — around 7.1 GB at Q3_K_M. Capacity is the gate — a card either holds it or it does not.
02

Match the context to your actual use

Longer conversations cost memory on top of what the weights need. Move the slider to your real working length before trusting any row for Elyza.
03

Decide how much compression you will accept

The quantisation column varies by card, because a bigger card holds a more accurate copy of Elyza — Q3_K_M on the smallest card that fits. Set a floor to hold the comparison at one level.
04

Rank by throughput rather than spec sheet

Sort by speed to see how cards rank for Elyza. It will not match a gaming ordering — generation is bound by memory bandwidth, which is why the B200 tops it at 261 tok/s.
05

Check the fit verdict before buying

Tight means Elyza loads and works, with no room to raise the context later. Comfortable means you can. The difference matters more than a few tokens per second.
06

Open the card you have settled on

Following a card through to its own page shows every other model it can hold, which is the question that follows once Elyza is settled.

Answers

Elyza — common questions

Would two GPUs run Elyza faster?

Capacity adds across cards; throughput does not. Since 509 of the cards we track already hold Elyza on their own, a second card is rarely the answer here.

Why does the quantisation differ between cards for Elyza?

Because capacity varies, so does how hard Elyza has to be squeezed — 5 distinct levels appear in the table above. Set a minimum quality to compare at one.

How accurate are these Elyza speed estimates?

These are estimates with real error bars. The fastest result here, 156–417 tok/s on the B200, could reasonably land anywhere in its published range depending on which runtime you use.

What GPU do I need to run Elyza?

The smallest card in our catalogue that holds Elyza is the Xeon Phi 5110P, with 8 GB of memory. It runs the model at Q3_K_M using about 7.1 GB, and produces roughly 18.3 tokens per second. 509 cards in total can run it.

How fast is Elyza on a GPU?

It depends on the card. The quickest we calculate is a B200 at about 261 tokens per second; the slowest that still runs it manages considerably less. Reading speed is around ten tokens per second, and 459 of the cards that can run Elyza clear that.

How much VRAM does Elyza need?

About 7.1 GB at Q3_K_M 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 Elyza on a 8 GB GPU?

Yes. A CMP 170HX 8 GB with 8 GB runs it at Q3_K_M, using about 7.1 GB and generating roughly 131 tokens per second — a tight fit.

Can I run Elyza on a 12 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 3080 Ti with 12 GB runs it at Q5_K_M, using about 10.1 GB and generating roughly 53.1 tokens per second — a tight fit.

Can I run Elyza on a 16 GB GPU?

Yes. A Tesla V100 SXM2 16 GB with 16 GB runs it at Q6_K, using about 11.6 GB and generating roughly 53.5 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

Can I run Elyza on a 24 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 5090 D V2 with 24 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 14.6 GB and generating roughly 43.7 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

Is Elyza open source?

Its weights are published, so Elyza 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 Elyza have?

Elyza has 13B parameters. 13B. 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.

Who created Elyza?

Elyza was published by Elyza, based in Japan, categorised as industry.

When was Elyza released?

Elyza was published in December 2023. 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 Elyza used for?

Elyza works in Language, and is recorded as handling language modeling/generation, Chat. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.

Where can I download Elyza?

The weights for Elyza 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 Elyza if it does not fit in my GPU?

It can be split between the card and system memory, but Elyza generates painfully slowly that way — the nearest miss we calculate is short by 3.2 GB. Nothing on this page assumes offloading.
