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 MiniMax-M2.7

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 MiniMax-M2.7

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

Radeon Instinct MI250

Memory needed

112.6 GB

Fastest

34.2 tok/s

MiniMax-M2.7 reaches a parameter count of 229B. That is beyond what any single graphics card holds. Running it means either splitting it across several cards or renting hardware built for the job, and every card able to hold it alone is a datacentre part. The number that can: 17.

The entry point is Radeon Instinct MI250, with a memory capacity of 128 GB, running it at a compression of Q3_K_M and producing around 12.8 tokens per second.

The quickest result comes from B200, generating roughly 34.2 tokens per second on the strength of a memory bandwidth of 8,000 GB/s.

Background

MiniMax-M2.7 was published by MiniMax, in the country recorded as China, during March 2026. 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.

The weights are published, so it can be downloaded and run on your own hardware indefinitely, offline, with no account attached.

Reading the throughput figures

Across every card that can run it, the middle of the range sits at 12.8 tokens per second. Clearing the ten tokens per second that roughly matches reading speed: 15 of them.

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.

Without the attention layout on record, the memory column is an approximation. It is close enough to choose hardware by, and least reliable at long context.

Step by step

How to choose a GPU for MiniMax-M2.7

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

01

Start from the memory column

The table lists every card able to hold MiniMax-M2.7, needing around 112.6 GB at a compression of Q3_K_M. No amount of processing power compensates for a card that cannot hold it.
02

Set the context length you will work at

The conversation occupies memory too, and grows as it goes. Set the slider to the length you expect, because at long context a card that handles short questions easily can be dropped by MiniMax-M2.7.
03

Choose how far you will compress it

The quantisation column varies by card, because a bigger card holds a more accurate copy, 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

Sort by speed to see how cards rank for MiniMax-M2.7. It will not match a gaming ordering, because generation is bound by memory bandwidth. The card topping the list is B200, at 34.2 tok/s.
05

Look at the headroom, not just the fit

Tight means it loads and works with no room to raise the context later, in the case of MiniMax-M2.7. 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

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 you have settled on MiniMax-M2.7.

Answers

MiniMax-M2.7 — common questions

MiniMax-M2.7— what is it used for?

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

MiniMax-M2.7— where can I download it?

The weights are published, though we do not hold a repository link for it. This site calculates hardware requirements rather than hosting model files.

MiniMax-M2.7— 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 52.8 GB. Every figure here assumes the whole model is resident on the card.

MiniMax-M2.7— 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: 17. So a second card is rarely the answer here.

MiniMax-M2.7— why does the quantisation differ between cards?

Each card is shown running the least-compressed copy it can hold. The number of distinct compression levels across the cards that fit it: 6. Bigger cards get the more accurate version, and the quality floor above pins the comparison to one level.

MiniMax-M2.7— how accurate are these speed estimates?

Every figure is derived from memory bandwidth and model size, not benchmarked, which is why each is published as a range rather than a single number. One example: 20–55 tok/s on B200. The same model and card vary by thirty to fifty per cent depending on the inference software and its version.

MiniMax-M2.7— what GPU do I need to run it?

The smallest card in our catalogue that holds it is Radeon Instinct MI250, with a memory capacity of 128 GB. It runs the model at a compression of Q3_K_M using about 112.6 GB, and produces roughly 12.8 tokens per second. The number of cards able to run it in total: 17.

MiniMax-M2.7— how fast is it on a GPU?

It depends on the card. The quickest we calculate is B200, at about 34.2 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: 15.

MiniMax-M2.7— how much VRAM does it need?

It needs about 112.6 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.

MiniMax-M2.7— 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.

MiniMax-M2.7— how many parameters does it have?

It has a parameter count of 229B. Per HuggingFace page: https://huggingface.co/MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.7. 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.

MiniMax-M2.7— who created it?

It was published by MiniMax, based in China, an organisation categorised as industry.

MiniMax-M2.7— when was it released?

It was published in March 2026.
