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 OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2)

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 OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2)

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

3.6 GB

Fastest

1,255 tok/s

OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) is small enough at 2.7B 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 13.7 tokens per second.

At the other end, a B200 generates roughly 1,255 tokens per second on it, on the strength of 8,000 GB/s of memory bandwidth.

Background

OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) was published by Meta AI, in United States of America, in June 2022. The organisation is categorised as industry.

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

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

Reading the throughput figures

Across every card that can run it, the middle of the range is about 35.2 tokens per second, and 775 of them clear the ten tokens per second that roughly matches reading speed.

Being dense, it reads all of itself per token, which is why the ordering by speed below follows the ordering by memory bandwidth so closely.

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 OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2)

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

Look at what OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) actually needs — around 3.6 GB at Q8_0. No amount of processing power compensates for a card that cannot hold it.
02

Decide how long your conversations run

Longer conversations cost memory on top of what the weights need. Move the slider to your real working length before trusting any row for OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2).
03

Decide how much compression you will accept

Each card runs the least-compressed copy it can hold — Q8_0 on the smallest card that fits. Setting a floor drops the cards that only manage OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) by squeezing it further than you would want.
04

Sort by speed

The speed ordering for OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) is effectively an ordering by memory bandwidth, which is why the B200 tops it at 1,255 tok/s.
05

Check the fit verdict before buying

Tight means OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) 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

Every card name links to its own page, which runs the same calculation across the whole model catalogue. Worth a look before buying for OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) alone — a card is usually bought for more than one model.

Answers

OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) — common questions

Can I run OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) on a 12 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 3080 Ti with 12 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 3.6 GB and generating roughly 143 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

Can I run OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) on a 16 GB GPU?

Yes. A Tesla V100 SXM2 16 GB with 16 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 3.6 GB and generating roughly 177 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

Can I run OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) on a 24 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 5090 D V2 with 24 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 3.6 GB and generating roughly 210 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

Is OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) open source?

Its weights are published, so OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) 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 OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) have?

OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) has 2.7B 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.

Who created OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2)?

OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) was published by Meta AI, based in United States of America, categorised as industry.

When was OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) released?

OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) was published in June 2022. 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 OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) used for?

OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) works in Language, and is recorded as handling language modeling, Chat, Language modeling/generation, Question answering. 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.

Where can I download OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2)?

The weights for OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) 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 OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) if it does not fit in my GPU?

Only by offloading, which is usually a false economy: the part in system memory drags the whole thing down. Our figures for OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) assume it is fully resident.

Would two GPUs run OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) faster?

Capacity adds across cards; throughput does not. Since 818 of the cards we track already hold OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) on their own, a second card is rarely the answer here.

Why does the quantisation differ between cards for OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2)?

A larger card holds a more accurate copy. Across the cards that run OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2), 1 compression levels are used; the floor control above pins it to one.

How accurate are these OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) speed estimates?

These are estimates with real error bars. The fastest result here, 753–2,008 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 OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2)?

The smallest card in our catalogue that holds OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) is the Tesla C1080, with 4 GB of memory. It runs the model at Q8_0 using about 3.6 GB, and produces roughly 13.7 tokens per second. 818 cards in total can run it.

How fast is OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) on a GPU?

It depends on the card. The quickest we calculate is a B200 at about 1,255 tokens per second; the slowest that still runs it manages considerably less. Reading speed is around ten tokens per second, and 775 of the cards that can run OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) clear that.

How much VRAM does OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) need?

About 3.6 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 OPT-2.7B (finetuned on WT2) on a 8 GB GPU?

Yes. A CMP 170HX 8 GB with 8 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 3.6 GB and generating roughly 234 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.
