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.

"Pre-training Stage 1: 100B tokens, consisting of diverse Russian data from Common Crawl, books, code, and proprietary datasets, mixed with re-played English data (English added as it is the primary language of the base model).

What the numbers mean

The hardware side

Minimum card

Tesla K20c

Memory needed

4.1 GB

Fastest

484 tok/s

T-Lite is small enough at 7B parameters that hardware is rarely the obstacle — 589 of the cards we track can run it, including cards several years old.

At the low end, a Tesla K20c handles it — 5 GB, at Q3_K_M, for about 28.9 tokens per second.

A B200 is the fastest we calculate for it: about 484 tokens per second, from 8,000 GB/s of memory bandwidth.

Where it came from

T-Lite was published by T-Bank, in Russia, in December 2024. The organisation is categorised as industry.

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

It is derived from Qwen2.5-7B rather than trained from scratch, which is the usual way a specialised model is produced.

The weights are published, so it can be downloaded and run on your own hardware indefinitely, offline, with no account attached. It is published under the t-tech organisation on Hugging Face.

Understanding the speeds

The median result is around 26.1 tokens per second; 559 cards produce text faster than most people read it.

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

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 T-Lite

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 T-Lite — around 4.1 GB at Q3_K_M. That figure, not the card's headline performance, is what decides whether it runs.

  2. 02

    Decide how long your conversations run

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

  3. 03

    Set a quality floor

    Compression is what makes T-Lite fit smaller cards, at some cost in accuracy — Q3_K_M on the smallest card that fits. A minimum quality removes the ones that go too far.

  4. 04

    Rank by throughput rather than spec sheet

    Sort by speed to see how cards rank for T-Lite. It will not match a gaming ordering — generation is bound by memory bandwidth, which is why the B200 tops it at 484 tok/s.

  5. 05

    Look at the headroom, not just the fit

    Tight means T-Lite 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.

  6. 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 T-Lite alone — a card is usually bought for more than one model.

Answers

T-Lite — common questions

01

What GPU do I need to run T-Lite?

The smallest card in our catalogue that holds T-Lite is the Tesla K20c, with 5 GB of memory. It runs the model at Q3_K_M using about 4.1 GB, and produces roughly 28.9 tokens per second. 589 cards in total can run it.

02

How fast is T-Lite on a GPU?

It depends on the card. The quickest we calculate is a B200 at about 484 tokens per second; the slowest that still runs it manages considerably less. Reading speed is around ten tokens per second, and 559 of the cards that can run T-Lite clear that.

03

How much VRAM does T-Lite need?

About 4.1 GB at Q3_K_M 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.

04

Can I run T-Lite on a 8 GB GPU?

Yes. A CMP 170HX 8 GB with 8 GB runs it at Q6_K, using about 6.6 GB and generating roughly 131 tokens per second — a tight fit.

05

Can I run T-Lite on a 12 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 3080 Ti with 12 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 8.2 GB and generating roughly 55.2 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

06

Can I run T-Lite on a 16 GB GPU?

Yes. A Tesla V100 SXM2 16 GB with 16 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 8.2 GB and generating roughly 68.4 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

07

Can I run T-Lite on a 24 GB GPU?

Yes. A GeForce RTX 5090 D V2 with 24 GB runs it at Q8_0, using about 8.2 GB and generating roughly 81.1 tokens per second — a comfortable fit.

08

Is T-Lite open source?

Its weights are published, so T-Lite 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.

09

How many parameters does T-Lite have?

T-Lite has 7B parameters. 7B. 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.

10

Who created T-Lite?

T-Lite was published by T-Bank, based in Russia, categorised as industry.

11

When was T-Lite released?

T-Lite was published in December 2024. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

12

What is T-Lite used for?

T-Lite works in Language, and is recorded as handling language modeling/generation, Question answering, Code generation, Mathematical reasoning. 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.

13

Where can I download T-Lite?

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

14

Can I run T-Lite 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 T-Lite is rarely worth using — the nearest miss we calculate is short by 1.3 GB. Every figure here assumes the whole model is on the card.

15

Would two GPUs run T-Lite faster?

A second card roughly doubles the memory available but not the generation rate. With 589 cards already able to run T-Lite alone, the case for pairing is weak.

16

Why does the quantisation differ between cards for T-Lite?

A larger card holds a more accurate copy. Across the cards that run T-Lite, 4 compression levels are used; the floor control above pins it to one.

17

How accurate are these T-Lite speed estimates?

These are estimates with real error bars. The fastest result here, 290–774 tok/s on the B200, could reasonably land anywhere in its published range depending on which runtime you use.
