FAQ
Can the NVIDIA H100 NVL run Qwen 3.5 9B?
Yes. The NVIDIA H100 NVL's 94.0GB of VRAM is enough to run Qwen 3.5 9B at f32 quantization (39.8GB required).
What's the best quantization to use?
f32 is the highest-precision quantization that fits in your 94.0GB. It uses about 39.8GB of memory and 41.3GB recommended for comfortable inference.
What if I need more headroom for context length?
KV cache memory grows with context length. The numbers above assume a baseline 2K-4K context. For long-context use (32K+), add another 2-6GB depending on the model architecture.
