Can H100 80GB SXM5 run Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B-Instruct?

NVIDIA · 80 GB HBM3 · 3350 GB/s bandwidth · Alibaba · 81.3B (active 3B) · MoE · model ctx up to 256K

Yes — the H100 80GB SXM5 (80 GB HBM3) can run Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B-Instruct. At Q4 with the default 8K context it needs ≈ 46.32 GB VRAM (weights 44.72 GB + KV cache 0.6 GB + 1 GB runtime overhead), which fits within 80 GB. Decode at Q4/8K: ≈ 710.6 tok/s (estimated, batch 1). FP16 needs ≈ 164.2 GB — does not fit on this card. 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	46.02 GB	Yes	710.6 est.
Q4	8K default	46.32 GB	Yes	710.6 est.
Q4	32K	48.12 GB	Yes	710.6 est.
FP16	4K	163.9 GB	No	133.0 est.
FP16	8K default	164.2 GB	No	132.5 est.
FP16	32K	166.0 GB	No	129.7 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).
