Can Gaudi 3 128GB run Mistral-Small-3.2-24B-Instruct-2506?

Intel · 128 GB HBM2e · 3276 GB/s bandwidth · Mistral · 24.0B · model ctx up to 128K

Yes — the Gaudi 3 128GB (128 GB HBM2e) can run Mistral-Small-3.2-24B-Instruct-2506. At Q4 with the default 8K context it needs ≈ 19.0 GB VRAM (weights 13.2 GB + KV cache 4.8 GB + 1 GB runtime overhead), which fits within 128 GB. Decode at Q4/8K: ≈ 86.9 tok/s (estimated, batch 1). FP16 (≈ 53.8 GB) also fits, at ≈ 23.9 tok/s (estimated). Estimates come from memory-bandwidth math; rows tagged measured override estimates. Relative ranking is more reliable than absolute tok/s. Methodology.

Fit & speed by quant and context

Quant	Context	VRAM needed	Fits?	tok/s (decode)
Q4	4K	16.6 GB	Yes	86.9 est.
Q4	8K default	19.0 GB	Yes	86.9 est.
Q4	32K	33.4 GB	Yes	86.9 est.
FP16	4K	51.4 GB	Yes	23.9 est.
FP16	8K default	53.8 GB	Yes	23.9 est.
FP16	32K	68.2 GB	Yes	23.9 est.

Fits = weights + KV(ctx) + 1 GB overhead ≤ 95% of VRAM. Measured anchors are context-agnostic; the fit verdict is recomputed per context. A missing tok/s means the model is far beyond this card (offload-only territory).
