Can H100 80GB SXM5 run Qwen3.6-27B?

NVIDIA · 80 GB HBM3 · 3350 GB/s bandwidth · Alibaba · 27.8B · model ctx up to 256K

Yes — the H100 80GB SXM5 (80 GB HBM3) can run Qwen3.6-27B. At Q4 with the default 8K context it needs ≈ 21.85 GB VRAM (weights 15.29 GB + KV cache 5.56 GB + 1 GB runtime overhead), which fits within 80 GB. Decode at Q4/8K: ≈ 76.7 tok/s (estimated, batch 1). FP16 (≈ 62.16 GB) also fits, at ≈ 21.1 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	19.07 GB	Yes	76.7 est.
Q4	8K default	21.85 GB	Yes	76.7 est.
Q4	32K	38.53 GB	Yes	76.7 est.
FP16	4K	59.38 GB	Yes	21.1 est.
FP16	8K default	62.16 GB	Yes	21.1 est.
FP16	32K	78.84 GB	No	62.0 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).
