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.

Nemotron-H 47B reaches a parameter count of 47B. That lands in the range a serious desktop card can handle once the weights are compressed. The number of cards we track that can run it: 93.
The least hardware that works is Radeon PRO V710, with a memory capacity of 28 GB, running it at a compression of Q3_K_M and producing around 9.6 tokens per second.
Top of the range is B200, generating roughly 72.1 tokens per second on the strength of a memory bandwidth of 8,000 GB/s.
About this model
Nemotron-H 47B was published by NVIDIA, in the country recorded as United States of America, during April 2025. It comes out of an organisation categorised as industry.
It works in the domain of Language, and is recorded as performing the task of language modeling/generation, Question answering, Translation, Quantitative reasoning, Code generation, Neural Architecture Search - NAS.
Its starting point was an existing base model, Nemotron-H 56B. Most models at this scale are adapted from an existing base rather than built from nothing.
The weights are published, so it can be downloaded and run on your own hardware indefinitely, offline, with no account attached. On Hugging Face it is published under the organisation nvidia.
How fast it runs, and why
The median result is around 18.2 tokens per second. Clearing the ten tokens per second that roughly matches reading speed: 72 of them.
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 Nemotron-H 47B
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
Start from what it actually needs, which is the requirement of Nemotron-H 47B, needing around 23.7 GB at a compression of Q3_K_M. Capacity is the gate — a card either holds it or it does not.
-
02
Set the context length you will work at
Set the context to what you will actually use. The cache grows with the conversation, and it is the usual reason a card that seemed fine stops fitting Nemotron-H 47B.
-
03
Choose how far you will compress it
Compression is what makes a model fit smaller cards, at some cost in accuracy, reaching a compression of Q3_K_M on the smallest card that fits. Setting a minimum quality drops the cards that only manage it by squeezing further than you would want, and holds the comparison at one level.
-
04
Compare tokens per second, not specifications
The speed ordering is effectively an ordering by memory bandwidth, for Nemotron-H 47B. It will not match a gaming ordering, because generation is bound by memory bandwidth. The card topping the list is B200, at 72.1 tok/s.
-
05
Look at the headroom, not just the fit
A tight fit runs, but leaves nothing spare for a longer conversation, in the case of Nemotron-H 47B. Comfortable means you can grow the context later. That difference matters more than a few tokens per second, so buy for comfortable if you expect to.
-
06
See what else that card runs
Every card name links to its own page, which runs the same calculation across the whole model catalogue. A card is usually bought for more than one model, so it is worth a look before buying for Nemotron-H 47B.
Answers
Nemotron-H 47B — common questions
Nemotron-H 47B— would two GPUs run it faster?
Two cards buy memory rather than speed, which matters only if one card cannot hold it. The number that can: 93. So a second card is rarely the answer here.
Nemotron-H 47B— why does the quantisation differ between cards?
Because capacity varies, so does how hard it has to be squeezed. The number of distinct levels in the table above: 5. Bigger cards get the more accurate version, and the quality floor above pins the comparison to one level.
Nemotron-H 47B— how accurate are these speed estimates?
They are calculated from specifications rather than measured, and each carries a range. One example: 43–115 tok/s on B200. The same model and card vary by thirty to fifty per cent depending on the inference software and its version.
Nemotron-H 47B— what GPU do I need to run it?
The smallest card in our catalogue that holds it is Radeon PRO V710, with a memory capacity of 28 GB. It runs the model at a compression of Q3_K_M using about 23.7 GB, and produces roughly 9.6 tokens per second. The number of cards able to run it in total: 93.
Nemotron-H 47B— how fast is it on a GPU?
It depends on the card. The quickest we calculate is B200, at about 72.1 tokens per second; the slowest that still runs it manages considerably less. Reading speed is around ten tokens per second, and the number of cards clearing that: 72.
Nemotron-H 47B— how much VRAM does it need?
It needs about 23.7 GB at a compression of Q3_K_M, 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.
Nemotron-H 47B— is it open source?
Its weights are published, so it 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.
Nemotron-H 47B— how many parameters does it have?
It has a parameter count of 47B. "We use MiniPuzzle to distill Nemotron-H-56B-Base to Nemotron-H-47B-Base, using only 63 billion training tokens and FP8 training". 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.
Nemotron-H 47B— who created it?
It was published by NVIDIA, based in United States of America, an organisation categorised as industry.
Nemotron-H 47B— when was it released?
It was published in April 2025.
Nemotron-H 47B— what is it used for?
It works in the domain of Language, and is recorded as handling the task of language modeling/generation, Question answering, Translation, Quantitative reasoning, Code generation, Neural Architecture Search - NAS. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.
Nemotron-H 47B— where can I download it?
Its weights are published on Hugging Face, under the organisation nvidia. We do not host model files — this site calculates what hardware is needed to run them.
Nemotron-H 47B— can I run it if it does not fit in my GPU?
It can be split between the card and system memory, but it generates painfully slowly that way. The nearest miss we calculate falls short by 7.5 GB. Every figure here assumes the whole model is resident on the card.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
