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.

Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B is small enough at 2B parameters that hardware is rarely the obstacle — 818 of the cards we track can run it, including cards several years old.

The smallest card that holds it is the Tesla C1080 with 4 GB, running it at Q8_0 and producing around 18.4 tokens per second.

The quickest result comes from a B200 at around 1,694 tokens per second — its 8,000 GB/s of bandwidth is what buys that.

About this model

Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B was published by NVIDIA, in United States of America, in September 2025. industry is the category the publisher falls under.

It works in Video, and is recorded as doing video generation, Text-to-video, Image-to-video, Video-to-video.

The weights being open is what puts this page in the calculator rather than only in the catalogue: it is a model you can actually hold. It is published under the nvidia organisation on Hugging Face.

How fast it runs, and why

Across every card that can run it, the middle of the range is about 47.6 tokens per second, and 789 of them clear the ten tokens per second that roughly matches reading speed.

Every weight participates in every token here, so bandwidth is the whole story: the ranking below is effectively a ranking of memory throughput.

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 Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B

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

  1. 01

    Check what it needs before anything else

    The table lists every card that can hold Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B — around 2.8 GB at Q8_0. That figure, not the card's headline performance, is what decides whether it runs.

  2. 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 Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B can slip off a card that handles short questions easily.

  3. 03

    Decide how much compression you will accept

    The quantisation column varies by card, because a bigger card holds a more accurate copy of Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B — Q8_0 on the smallest card that fits. Set a floor to hold the comparison at one level.

  4. 04

    Compare tokens per second, not specifications

    Sort by speed to see how cards rank for Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B. It will not match a gaming ordering — generation is bound by memory bandwidth, which is why the B200 tops it at 1,694 tok/s.

  5. 05

    Check the fit verdict before buying

    A tight fit runs Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B but leaves nothing spare for a longer conversation; comfortable has headroom. If you expect to grow the context, buy for comfortable.

  6. 06

    Check the card from the other side

    Following a card through to its own page shows every other model it can hold, which is the question that follows once Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B is settled.

Answers

Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B — common questions

01

When was Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B released?

Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B was published in September 2025.

02

What is Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B used for?

Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B works in Video, and is recorded as handling video generation, Text-to-video, Image-to-video, Video-to-video. A model can carry several of each, so these are the areas it was built for rather than a limit on what it will attempt.

03

Where can I download Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B?

Its weights are published under the nvidia organisation on Hugging Face. We do not host model files — this site calculates what hardware is needed to run them.

04

Can I run Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B 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 Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B is rarely worth using. Every figure here assumes the whole model is on the card.

05

Would two GPUs run Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B faster?

A second card roughly doubles the memory available but not the generation rate. With 818 cards already able to run Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B alone, the case for pairing is weak.

06

Why does the quantisation differ between cards for Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B?

Because capacity varies, so does how hard Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B has to be squeezed — 1 distinct levels appear in the table above. Set a minimum quality to compare at one.

07

How accurate are these Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B 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 1,016–2,711 tok/s on the B200 rather than a single number.

08

What GPU do I need to run Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B?

The smallest card in our catalogue that holds Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B is the Tesla C1080, with 4 GB of memory. It runs the model at Q8_0 using about 2.8 GB, and produces roughly 18.4 tokens per second. 818 cards in total can run it.

09

How fast is Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B on a GPU?

It depends on the card. The quickest we calculate is a B200 at about 1,694 tokens per second; the slowest that still runs it manages considerably less. Reading speed is around ten tokens per second, and 789 of the cards that can run Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B clear that.

10

How much VRAM does Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B need?

About 2.8 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.

11

Can I run Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B on a 8 GB GPU?

Yes. A CMP 170HX 8 GB with 8 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 2.8 GB and generating roughly 316 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

12

Can I run Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B on a 12 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 3080 Ti with 12 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 2.8 GB and generating roughly 193 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

13

Can I run Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B on a 16 GB GPU?

Yes. A Tesla V100 SXM2 16 GB with 16 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 2.8 GB and generating roughly 239 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

14

Can I run Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B on a 24 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 5090 D V2 with 24 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 2.8 GB and generating roughly 284 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

15

Is Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B open source?

Its weights are published, so Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B 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.

16

How many parameters does Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B have?

Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B has 2B 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.

17

Who created Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B?

Cosmos-Predict2.5 2B was published by NVIDIA, based in United States of America, categorised as industry.
