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 II-Medical-8B

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 II-Medical-8B

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

What you need to run it

Minimum card

Memory needed

Fastest

424 tok/s

II-Medical-8B is small enough at 8B parameters that hardware is rarely the obstacle — 582 of the cards we track can run it, including cards several years old.

The least hardware that works is a Quadro 6000. Its 6 GB is enough at IQ4_XS compression, giving roughly 15.9 tokens per second.

A B200 is the fastest we calculate for it: about 424 tokens per second, from 8,000 GB/s of memory bandwidth.

Where it came from

II-Medical-8B was published by Intelligent Internet, in United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, in May 2025. It comes out of industry.

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

It is derived from Qwen3-8B rather than trained from scratch, which is the usual way a specialised model is produced.

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 Intelligent-Internet organisation on Hugging Face.

Understanding the speeds

The median result is around 23.8 tokens per second; 551 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.

Memory here is estimated from size rather than computed from the architecture, which is not recorded for this model — the numbers are indicative rather than exact.

Step by step

How to choose a GPU for II-Medical-8B

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 II-Medical-8B — around 5.1 GB at IQ4_XS. Capacity is the gate — a card either holds it or it does not.
02

Match the context to your actual use

Set the context to what you will actually use. The cache grows with the conversation, and it is the usual reason II-Medical-8B stops fitting a card that seemed fine.
03

Decide how much compression you will accept

Each card runs the least-compressed copy it can hold — IQ4_XS on the smallest card that fits. Setting a floor drops the cards that only manage II-Medical-8B by squeezing it further than you would want.
04

Compare tokens per second, not specifications

The speed ordering for II-Medical-8B is effectively an ordering by memory bandwidth, which is why the B200 tops it at 424 tok/s.
05

Check the fit verdict before buying

A tight fit runs II-Medical-8B but leaves nothing spare for a longer conversation; comfortable has headroom. If you expect to grow the context, buy for comfortable.
06

Check the card from the other side

Every card name links to its own page, which runs the same calculation across the whole model catalogue. Worth a look before buying for II-Medical-8B alone — a card is usually bought for more than one model.

Answers

II-Medical-8B — common questions

Would two GPUs run II-Medical-8B faster?

Two cards buy memory rather than speed. That matters for II-Medical-8B only if one card cannot hold it — 582 can, so a second adds little.

Why does the quantisation differ between cards for II-Medical-8B?

Because capacity varies, so does how hard II-Medical-8B has to be squeezed — 4 distinct levels appear in the table above. Set a minimum quality to compare at one.

How accurate are these II-Medical-8B 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 254–678 tok/s on the B200 rather than a single number.

What GPU do I need to run II-Medical-8B?

The smallest card in our catalogue that holds II-Medical-8B is the Quadro 6000, with 6 GB of memory. It runs the model at IQ4_XS using about 5.1 GB, and produces roughly 15.9 tokens per second. 582 cards in total can run it.

How fast is II-Medical-8B on a GPU?

It depends on the card. The quickest we calculate is a B200 at about 424 tokens per second; the slowest that still runs it manages considerably less. Reading speed is around ten tokens per second, and 551 of the cards that can run II-Medical-8B clear that.

How much VRAM does II-Medical-8B need?

About 5.1 GB at IQ4_XS 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 II-Medical-8B on a 8 GB GPU?

Yes. A CMP 170HX 8 GB with 8 GB runs it at Q5_K_M, using about 6.5 GB and generating roughly 141 tokens per second — a tight fit.

Can I run II-Medical-8B on a 12 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 3080 Ti with 12 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 9.3 GB and generating roughly 48.3 tokens per second — a tight fit.

Can I run II-Medical-8B on a 16 GB GPU?

Yes. A Tesla V100 SXM2 16 GB with 16 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 9.3 GB and generating roughly 59.8 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

Can I run II-Medical-8B on a 24 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 5090 D V2 with 24 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 9.3 GB and generating roughly 70.9 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

Is II-Medical-8B open source?

Its weights are published, so II-Medical-8B 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 II-Medical-8B have?

II-Medical-8B has 8B parameters. 8B. 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 II-Medical-8B?

II-Medical-8B was published by Intelligent Internet, based in United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, categorised as industry.

When was II-Medical-8B released?

II-Medical-8B was published in May 2025.

What is II-Medical-8B used for?

II-Medical-8B works in Language, and is recorded as handling language modeling/generation, Question answering, Medical diagnosis. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.

Where can I download II-Medical-8B?

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

Can I run II-Medical-8B 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 — the nearest miss we calculate is short by 1.0 GB. Our figures for II-Medical-8B assume it is fully resident.
